I would like to have syntax highlighting while perusing my configs - does anybody know of a good Cisco IOS syntax highlighting bundle for TextMate or Sublime Text?
Welcome to Network Engineering Stack Exchange

We're a little bit different from other sites. Here's how:
Ask questions, get answers, no distractions
This site is all about getting answers. It's not a discussion forum. There's no chit-chat.
Just questions...
...and answers.
Good answers are voted up and rise to the top.
The best answers show up first so that they are always easy to find.
The person who asked can mark one answer as "accepted".
Accepting doesn't mean it's the best answer, it just means that it worked for the person who asked.
Cisco-configuration syntax highlighting for TextMate/Sublime Text
2 Answers
I haven't tried it yet but there is a GitHub repo someone made for Cisco IOS Syntax Highlighting for Sublime Text 2.
Grab Notepad++ which has many different language (formatting=parsing) options. Though I don't have a specific one for Cisco, I'm sure someone's created one or you can define your own.
