Is there syntax highlighting for DOS command line operations or DOS batch files?

Question

It doesn't look like there is (just grey code blocks), but perhaps I am missing a way to trigger it.

Answer 1

Use

<!-- language: lang-vb -->

Example

rem this is a comment
set here="is a string with spaces"
rem here are some keywords
call zulu
date zulu
do zulu
else zulu
erase zulu
exit zulu
for zulu
goto zulu
if zulu
in zulu
not zulu

Answer 2

You can try lang-dos. It's a somewhat weak approach, but may be better than nothing:

@echo off
SET Var=Value
ECHO Var is now %Var%
"C:\Program Files\SomeCommand.exe" /?
IF NOT %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 ( EXIT /B 1 )
CALL OtherScript.cmd
REM etc.
