Hi Tanel,

In eclipse, each file can be open with different editors, thanks to the right click menu "Open with".
So, to have Lua coloring in your Xml file, you can open the file with the Lua editor.
And to have the Xml coloring open the file with Xml editor (not installed in LDT standalone product).

But, keep in mind that your file is not a full Lua one or a full Xml one, so your file coloration in both editors can be partial or doesn't work at all, because both editors doesn't expected syntax mixed files.

Marc

From the "Help > Install New Software..." menu, you should be able to install the "Eclipse XML Editors and Tools" features from the Eclipse Juno repository

Hope this helps Smile
