README

        FarColorer

==========

FarColorer is a syntax highlighting plugin for Far Manager.

[![Build](https://github.com/colorer/FarColorer/actions/workflows/farcolorer-ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/colorer/FarColorer/actions/workflows/farcolorer-ci.yml)

It only works for (F4)Edit file. (F3)View is not supported, as there is no API.

But you can type in the console `clr:name_of_file`. This launches the built-in viewer colorer.
