I have my Micro Code Studio+ set up to switch between PBP and MPASM. The check box for MPASM is cool. While I was at it, I set up MPLAB to use PBP. The problem is that if I load a " .pbp" file created in MCS+ into MPLAB none of the comments change to a different color text as it does in MCS. Is there a way to fix this? In MPLAB the Edit\Properties\Text\Choose Colors are all set as they should be. “ ; “ should comment text in both programs I think? Is there something else I need to do?

MPLAB only highlights the file if it has a .bas extension.

It is not known what basic language the highlighting was setup for, but it wasn't PBP.
Many things do not highlight the way you expect it to.

The highlighting is not part of the plug-in. It's built in to MPLAB.
melabs has never had a way to change it.
