I'm developing Eclipse editor with SWT/JFace for doT.js template engine. I have done tags highlighting, content assist with doT.js global variables and tags. But I'm new at Eclipse plugin development and I have a probleem.
Problem is that inside doT.js tags I need JavaScript syntacs. Is it possible to use already existing editors/ plugins (like Aptana plugin) or add JS syntacs some other way?

The Eclipse Web Tools Project (WTP) contains a Javascript editor.
You can install this using 'Help > Install New Software...' Choose you main Eclipse site in the 'Work with' field (http://download.eclipse.org/releases/luna for Luna).
Choose 'Javascript Development Tools' in the 'Web, XML, Java EE...' section.

If you need powerfull completion, hyperlink, hover, validation, for JavaScript, I suggest you that you try tern.java. You can use it with a simple SWT Text:
See this sample at tern.eclipse.swt.samples
I used Aptana plugin to get JavaScript and HTML syntax support for my editor. WTP seemed to complicated for that.
