Php alternative syntax highlighting in Notepad++

Question

Is there any way to get tags and the if / endif stuff to highlight like the braces? Search brings me no help.

Answer 1

I love that editor. Edit \plugins\APIs\php.xml to customize the syntax highlighting for PHP.

Answer 2

I would like to suggest not only highlight but also matching, it really hard for me to match the syntax manually. Not sure what is the advantage for using text other than using braces.
