I'm using the very useful plugin "texify IDEA" for working with latex code inside IntelliJ. It works very fine for all my needs. Unfortunately, in Editor -> Code Style section of the options I cannot find Latex... so I cannot set my custom code style rules. I've tried to search online without success... how can I resolve this?
Speaking as the author of TeXiFy-IDEA: what yole said is correct. This is a feature that is not yet implemented and therefore is not supported by the plugin. You can either wait for the developers to add this functionality, or add it yourself.
I would highly recommend visiting the GitHub page of the plugin if you have questions/feature requests/bug reports for faster and better support.

I just got access to the new Stencil beta and I have no idea what to do. I have reviewed all of the documentation on the BC developer website, but I don't know how to proceed. I am also not sure if I will even be able to create designs in Stencil since I don't know Handlbars or json - are those programming skills required or can we still rely on CSS and HTML for most design customization? BC told me there is no support for getting set up and to ask in this forum instead.
Normally I would look under the hood of an existing theme to see how it's built and try "learning on the job" but since I can't even get access to the files, I am at a loss. I created an account on GitHub but I have never used it so I don't know where to look for the files (I did a search but there are thousands of files there and I again couldn't figure out where to start). Can anyone point me in the right direction so I can determine if using Stencil is even feasible for my projects?
Handlebars compiles serverside as HTML. You do still have stylesheets, but we are using some SASS custom functions (documented in Stencil docs).
I'd recommend taking a look here: http://blog.teamtreehouse.com/getting-started-with-handlebars-js
I'm trying to create a language plugin for intellij idea, for sweet js.
Is there any way i can get the syntax highlighting and other javascript language support for my project from existing javascript language support in intellij idea?
I don't think this would be possible. The JavaScript plugin works with a syntax tree that has a certain structure, and sweet.js allows to change the structure in all sorts of ways that the plugin will not be able to work with.
Also, the plugin is not open-source and does not expose any documented APIs, so it's very challenging to build something on top of it even for the tasks which do fit well with the plugin's design.
I am making a eclipse plugin. I began with the default MultiPageEditor wizard and implemented the specific functionality that I wanted. Now, I wanted to get features like Java syntax highlighting, error detection etc. that comes with the standard JDT plugin, in the custom editor that I have written.
Questions:
1. Is this even feasible ?
2. If yes, what will be quickest way to achieve this.
Why not just sub-class the JavaEditor or the CompilationUnitEditor and add it as a page to your MultiPageEditor?
I have to add my custom Dictionary to fckeditor/ tinymce editor,so that my brand name,material name shouldn't be misspelled in editor when spellchecking happens.Can anyone suggest me to add custom dictionary to my editors.
Thanks in advance
There are a few TinyMCE spell check options that can use custom dictionaries. The free solution is the PSpell/ASpell plugin that uses PSpell/ASpell on your server.
http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php/TinyMCE:Plugins/spellchecker
A non-free solutions is JSpell, which allows you to alter the dictionary from the editor.

Another alternative, is to use tinyMCE+LanguageTool (https://www.languagetool.org/)
LanguageTool its more like a spell checking engine, where you can even define your own grammatical rules, etc.
Its really powerful and free. :)
Its offered also an open source spellchecker plugin for tinyMCE. The custom dictionary and other custom things can also be setup when hosting the service dictionary in your own server.
The actual spellchecking plugin:

It's been more than an year that i'm developing a new scripting language with its own grammar rules and constructs.
I'd like to give the users of this language some minimalistic ide to work with, but i don't want/have time to make one from scratch so i'd like to take one already existing (it has to run on Linux platforms natively, so no windows-only editors plz) and customize it.
Well, which one is the easiest to customize without changing the source code and recompiling it, maybe even with plugin support?
Thank you.
UPDATE
I don't need to know which editor is the best for you, i need to know which one is the easiest to customize AND, most of it, which one has the most complete documentation about new language customization.
Ex: SciTE is good, but its documentation about custom grammars is really poor.
Have you looked into Scintilla/SciTE? I think it gets used often for this sort of thing. It's very lightweight, but from what I understand, is easy to add functionality to. It's not really an IDE, but it's more of a text-editor component that you could use as the basis for a simple IDE. I've used SciTE, which is a sort of demo text editor of Scintilla's capabilities. It's simple, but also quite fast and responsive.
I suppose another option would be to write plugins for existing IDEs such as Eclipse or Netbeans. Both of these IDEs support many languages just through 3rd-party plugins. Going this route means you don't need to build a complete UI, just the components needed to make your language work.
The downside of building plugins for an extendable IDE (such as NetBeans or Eclipse) is that you are at the mercy of the IDE developers. If they change the way the platform works, you must ensure that your plugins still work with the new versions. Sometimes this can become a major problem.
All of these options should work on Linux as well as Windows.
This sounds like a very ambitious project and I wish you luck.
I don't use linux too often, I use a Mac and my favorite text editor is called TextMate because it has snippets, code completion, and a whole mess of other features. The closest thing to it that I've found on linux is called Scribes.
There's always Emacs or Vim (I lean towards Vim, but that's just my opinion :) ). Neither are IDEs per se, but both are very extensible and it shouldn't be too hard to create settings for each that will aid people writing scripts in your language.
