eIUM File Highlighter

A Visual Studio Code extension providing syntax highlighting for eIUM configuration files (.cfg and .config files).

Features

This extension offers the following syntax highlighting features for eIUM configuration files:

• Node lines (e.g., [/deployment/SIU_DEG01/DEG_DeviceInterface_01]) displayed with distinct heading styles
• ClassName property lines with full-line highlighting
• Directives (e.g., @Include and @Exclude) highlighted
• Reference lines (starting with #->) specially marked
• Comments (lines starting with # but not #->) specially marked

These highlighting features make eIUM configuration files more readable, helping users quickly identify different types of configuration elements.

After installation, VS Code will automatically recognize files with .cfg and .config extensions and apply the highlighting rules. No additional configuration is needed.
