[asterisk-users] Which KDE editor to edit Asterisk config files ?

[Diego Iastrubni]

Well, this KDE user (if I have a working SVN account do I qualify as a KDE 
developer...?) uses only kate and hates VIM. I 
use "sftp://root:12345@mymachine/etc/asterisk/*.conf" to open files on the 
remote servers. 

Ok, so instead of bitching, I am attaching here my first draft of the XML file 
which represents the kate syntax hightlighing. Save in in 
~/.kde/share/katepart/diego-kicks-ass.xml, and you will see "Asterisk config 
files" under "Configuration".

It's not done yet, as I want the sample configuration file (also attached 
here) to be working as expected. 

Please comment and review.

PS:
Someone said something about bluefish. This is a GtkSourceView syntax 
highlighter which will work on GEdit as well no...? Can you share?

PS2:
The asterisk config file was blocked, how funny... I am attaching here inline:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
; comment

; illegal content: not inside a context
include => context1
exten => s,1,Answer

illegal syntax

#include another_file
#include *more_files

[context1] ; a comment
exten => s,1,Answer ; more comments
exten => s,2,Hungup ; and even more

[context2] 
exten ;; should be an error
exten -> ;; should be an error
exten -> s ;; should be an error
exten -> s,n ;; should be an error

[context3] shuold be an error
include => context2	; ok
include => "context2"	; ok, but fishie

[context3] shuold be an error ; and this a comment
include => context2	; ok
include => "context2"	; ok, but fishie
