Hi, Does anyone know if it's possible to make syntax coloring in Project Builder 2.0 more sensitive, and highlight more than just the default elements of code, but, say, class names, or constructor calls, like the XEmacs JDE package does? It'd be nice if syntax coloring could be controlled by users on this low level.

Also, do you think Project Builder will be free into the near future? Any word on whether its source will be released?

It would be nice, but I don't think it's easily possible right now. Certainly a feature I hope they'll add. I suppose you might be able to do something like that with a pbplugin.

Project Builder will almost certainly be free for a while now.
It's doubtful that Project Builder's source will be released. Apple doesn't seem to like open source very much. And Project Builder depends on (and in fact seems to be mostly composed of) several private frameworks.
