Hello,
I'm pretty new using emacs. I'd like to use it to work with PL/1 code,
but it doesn't seem to support syntax highlighting out of the box.
Does anyone know of an existing pl/1 extension I could use? Or do you
know of a good guide(or examples) for writing my own extension for
syntax highlighting?
Thank you for the help!

not sure about PL/1 mode.
For syntax highlighting, it's pretty easy. See:
