Screenshot about the current behaviour (no highlighting in the compare view).

Currently, the *.dot files are not highlighted in the compare view, see the attached screenshot. 

However, this kind of highlighting is supported by the Xtext framework, see e.g. Eclipse MWE2 project: https://github.com/eclipse/mwe/pull/94

This highlighting support in the compare view should also be added to the GEF DOT editor.

I pushed the following changes to the master branch: 

[559536] DOT Editor - Highlight content of *.dot files in compare view.

- Add corresponding contentTypBinding to the plugin.xml to ensure that
the content of *.dot files are highlighted in the compare view.

Resolving as fixed in 5.4.0 (2020-03).
