AlexAndrei Member	Hello, I would need some help with a way to have a custom syntax highlight, using regular expression. I work a lot with software generated traces, that have various messages with common prefixes and suffixes. Something like: (A\|B)_(.+)_(request\|confirm) A_message1_request B_message2_confirm etc Is there a way to define for example two classes of keywords, one for _request messages, one for _confirm messages, with different styles, and using regular expressions ? I could enter all messages by hand, but there are quite many, and also they change in time. Thank you in advance! PS: Using PN 2.1.5 + PyPN 1.12. A PyPN method would also be acceptable, but I would prefer to avoid it for now. Regards, Alex
