<title>Syntax highlighting</title>
<p><app>gedit</app> provides syntax highlighting for a wide range of markup,
programming, and scientific languages. If <app>gedit</app> recognizes the
syntax being used when you open a file, it will automatically highlight the
text.</p>
<p>If your syntax or language is not highlighted upon startup, you can
select the appropriate syntax or language by clicking
<guiseq><gui style="menu">View</gui>
<gui style="menuitem">Highlight Mode</gui></guiseq>,
and then choosing the desired syntax. Alternately, you can select the syntax
name from a list at the bottom of the <app>gedit</app> window.</p>
