Hi akyprian,
Is it possible to store the path of the highlite file entry relative to the .exe file and not as an absolute path?
Example:
HiLightFile=C:\Downloads\HiEditor\KeyWords.hes

That way, if I move the HiEditor folder around, it wouldn't matter!

Regards,
Shantanu

Hi Shantanu Gadgil,

Yes it is possible. Note that if you set  relative paths, it should work
