syntax highlighting module for plaintext editors?

Summary:

sometimes I work on my site offline, and it'd be nice to take advantage of TextWrangler's ability to color code (e.g. modules) differently from content. Has anyone already built such a thing?

Dear all, I know this isn't the most current forum, but though my question is for the programmers out there, it isn't strictly related to the API. Please forgive me if this is the wrong place to ask it.

My question is: have any of you seen or built a language module for a plain-text coding environment (e.g. SublimeText, TextWrangler, NetBeans, etc) that will highlight Wikidot syntax? I've been doing some site-building offline, and using TextWrangler for that purpose, and while it's not hard it would be great to take advantage of the full features, e.g. to quickly find my hidden comments, which I use as notes to myself.

There's already a BBEdit language module for Markdown that should be fairly close, but before I spend time learning the XML protocols for modifying it, I thought I should check in with the Wikidot Developer community to see if the work had already been done.

In curiosity,
Ben

Maybe a Community forum will be a better place to ask such question (higher audience)
