The EGL source editor provides
a number of tools that you use to create
EGL files.
Common programming tasks
These topics contain information
on how to complete several
common programming tasks in EGL.
The EGL editor
The EGL code editor looks and works like a standard text
editor or code editor for other languages, but it has additional features
to help you edit EGL code. The code editor highlights invalid syntax,
provides an explanation for problems in the code, colors keywords,
strings, and comments, and helps you write EGL code.
Code snippets
Snippets are code objects that are reusable programming
objects. Snippets can be a piece of code or a complete programming
task. In addition to the default snippets provided in the workbench,
you can create your own snippets.
Using cheat sheets
Cheat sheets can assist you with common tasks in the Workbench.
They provide step-by-step instructions within a workbench view and
can perform some of the steps in the task automatically.
