I just right clicked and manually opened my rule file with the associated
editor and syntax coloring came back; however still no validation,
regardless of whether I use the .drl extension or .dslr extension.  the
.dslr extension does open in the DSL Rule Editor rather than Rule Editor. 
Manually right-clicking and clicking "validate" has no effect either.
