The sorry state of Visual Studio syntax highlighting (2012)

What the hell makes you think your dislike of the Visual Studio syntax highlighting system makes it okay to be so bloody rude? Would you be happy if everybody who disliked your work said &quot;fuck you, ulam2&quot;?<p>I&#x27;m not saying that sort of language is never appropriate - it&#x27;s a fair response to patent lawsuits, for example. But let&#x27;s keep feedback on user interface issues a bit more civilized.

I know, pointless comment, but some syntax highlighting issues hardly seem worth a &quot;fuck you&quot;. Article title would be much better without that.

Post is from 2012, but still it is weird to be so inflammatory about the inabilities of customizing a specific part of syntax highlighting.<p>Unless you have actually written syntax highlighting code parsers yourself better as what is in Visual Studio I am of the opinion you do not have any rights to be that rude.

So one person does not like syntax highlighting of Microsoft and he&#x2F;she uses expletives. Bugger you, sir, for writing this article.

I keep forgetting that is a worse swear word in american english. 2 years later though the situation has not improved.

why do you need colors at all?
