Hi all,

I didn’t see anyone ask this kind of question so I guess it may just be a silly problem.
When I open a .c or .cpp file, the visual studio automatically shows keywords in colour. But when I open a .cu file, it does not highlight any keyword which is very difficult for me to view. Anyone knows how to solve this problem?
Cheers.
