DSF Syntax Highlighting

DSF Syntax Highlighting adds rich syntax coloring and formatting awareness for .dsf files — a custom XML-like configuration format used in [your context / system name if relevant].

This extension is designed to make DSF files easier to read, edit, and understand by highlighting key structures such as XML tags, DSF directives, attributes, and values.

Features

• Full syntax highlighting for .dsf files
• XML tag support, including nested tags and attributes
• Highlighting for DSF directives like :DPXXXX commands
• Attribute/value coloring for DSF directives (similar to XML attributes)
• Special coloring for directive terminators (e.g. :DPXXXX. → . in its own style)
• Supports CDATA blocks and embedded XML inside <textcontent> elements
• File association: .dsf files are automatically recognized

Requirements

No additional requirements — just install and start editing .dsf files.

Extension Settings

This extension does not currently add custom settings.
It simply registers a language grammar and file association for .dsf files.

Known Issues

• Embedded XML inside <textcontent> tags is currently treated as plain text (by design).
  We may add an option to highlight it in the future.
