[OS X TeX] BBEdit 8 - missing Configure TeX Coloring

[Kyle Johnson]

Richard,

I wrote Bare Bones about this, and they directed me to the rather 
hidden place to turn on math coloring. Go to preferences, and then 
languages. In the top window of the dialog box -- "installed languages" 
-- scroll to Tex and highlight it. Then push the "options" button, and 
there will be a color math check box in the pop dialogue box. I had to 
push options twice, the first time I got the dialogue box for html.

HTH,
Kyle
