Hi

In a project I use some HTML templates which I parse in a
Lazarus/Freepascal CGI application. Those templates have the extension
".tmpl", and I find it very convenient to include those templates in
the project file. However, every time I open the project I has to re-
enable the HTML syntax highlighter found by right clicking in the file
and chose "File Settings/Highlighter/HTML". Is it a way to set an
option in the project or the IDE in such a way that those files are
automatically HTML syntax highlighted?

Ubuntu 16.04/18.04 - Lazarus 1.8.4 - FPC 3.04

Best regards Bent

Open Tools/Options...
Locate Editor/Display/Colors
Change to "HTML document" and add ";thtml" in the editable combobox
Press "OK"

I didn't try it myself but maybe this works.

Superb. It works. Probably the only place I haven't looked. Thanks a
lot.
