====== Blocks ======

In HippoEDIT you can define style ranges with help of style //blocks//, defining continues highlighting interval between open and close tags. 
<code xml><Blocks>
    <Block open="{" close="}"/>
    <Regexp open="'" open_lead="[^\w\)'\]]" close="'"/>
</Blocks></code>

There are two kind of block types you can use:
  * **[[syntax:styles:plain-block|Block]]** - style definition with open tag defined as character sequence and close block as character sequence or character set.
  * **[[syntax:styles:regexp-block|Regexp]]** - style definition with open and close tag defined as regular expressions. Much more powerful than //Block// but also much more slower. 

<note tip>Try to use //Block// definition as much as you can, because regular expression definitions are in 10 times slower.</note>
