A case against syntax highlighting

Anonymous

I can't speak as a true programmer/developer, I do sysadmin work in PowerShell mostly. But syntax highlighting is very helpful as a beginner/intermediate coder. It helps ensure that me and PowerShell are both interpreting the code the same way - if it's highlighted, it's recognized by the shell as the part of syntax that I intended it to be. If it's not, I've made a mistake.

I do think there is some validity to the argument against highlighting though, so I'm going to give it a try and see what I prefer. Thanks for posting this, and thanks to everyone who commented!
