HELP! I need a program that can highlight between 2 words

This question is probably going to be geared towards people who can code.

I need something that will highlight millions of lines of code in-between 2 known key words such as "Vessel"

Vessel {

millions of lines of code

Vessel {

As you can already tell I want to copy out my working crafts to a new save file. But the way the save files are set up is you cannot go thru millions of lines to figure out where the next vessel begins. Can anyone help me?

O.o

You don't want highlighting, you want folding.

Get Notepad++ (Windows), Geany (Linux), or TextMate 2 (OS X), open the persistence.sfs and set the syntax highlighting to Python (it's not actually Python being used but the syntax is close enough).

well this is all dandy but I found a method using Control G to jump to lines that say VESSEL and Start/End Select....but the sad news is a brand new save still gives me NaN bug and a corrupt game

Control+G? ... That sounds like Notepad. Very, very, very bad idea to be using Notepad to edit those files. For one, it's handling of line breaks is terrible.

Try editing, very, very carefully with an application that actually was made for the purpose.
