    Pretty interesting, isn't it? But I would like to reach it in UE. That what I need to know is how to specify the content between two bracket compounds like those by regular expression (I can't accept other way).
    I can show by this specification: ( "<{" | "<}" ) content ( "{>" | "}>" )
    I have also tried to colour those bracket compounds but its another thing. Thanx for help very MUCH. UE is the most amazing editor I've ever used!
    After solution of this I will publish what I need it for :) .

      I would classify it as crazy. However, I have a solution for you. Regular expressions can be used only for funtion string definitions for the function list and not for highlighting strings.

      I guess, you use the standard wordfile.txt in the UltraEdit program directory. Open this file and modify the first line for HTML to the following line:

      /L3"HTML" HTML_LANG Nocase Noquote Block Comment On = <!-- Block Comment Off = --> Block Comment On Alt = <{ Block Comment Off Alt = > File Extensions = HTM HTML SHTML HTT HTA HTX CFM JSP PHP PHTML ASP

      In the next line with the delimiters delete the 2 characters {} or only }.

      And last at the end of the block for HTML add following 2 lines:

      /C3"Closing }}"
      <}}>

      Save the wordfile and you can already see the highlighting. Open Configuration - Editor Display - Syntax Highlighting, select Language HTML and specify the style you want for Color Group Alternate Block Comments and Closing }}. I suggest to use the same style for both.

      That's not exactly what you want, but the result should be the same.

        Thank you for your trial my neighbour but this kind of a solution would make the code between <{ and }> ignored, I think, so it couldn't be processed and folded when I set up Open Fold String "{>" and Close Fold String "<}". Also it would be impossible to sign opposite brackets by setting them as "<{" to "}>" or "{>" to "<}".
        So I think I have to satisfy with only the brackets highlighting.
