I have to export ALL the languages I customized?
Won't re-importing overwrite any/all changes

1. Yes
2. Yes, reimport 'll overwrite my changes.

Greetings.
Thanks for the clarification.
I'm wondering about the value/ease of keeping a changelog for the lexlib file?
That way users could manually make changes to customized lexlib files and stay in sync with your releases ...

Not often changlog of LexLib needed. You 1st who needs.

I post changes in Readme/History.txt in form "Perl lexer fix"(W/o details).

AHK ACP: - "KW1" means "keyword"? - Could you add descr. text for all keys? (If it's hard u can leave it)

Ja

It is only my first "quick & dirty" AHK.acp.
I don't need any descriptions, so I didn't add any.
The autofill items are from my entries in the AHK lexer -
which are VERY case sensitive. AHK is NOT a case sensitive language,
but I like my script highighting to differentiate between MENU, Menu, menu, for example.

Anyway, here is a link to the ahk.api (which has some descriptions) from SctiTE.
Maybe someone could quickly make an Autohotkey.acp for SW from that?
I'll do what I can to add descriptions ... as time goes by ...

Well ...
I am just trying to find a simple procedure to keep my lexer up to date with your changes
while keeping all my customizations. I don't see any other way at the moment.
Maybe someone (or I) will come up with a better idea ...

If u 're only changing colors, some feature of keepin colors separately needed. If u change smth more hard, maybe u should send me your change

So far -
- I've made LOTS of changes to the AHK lexer.
- I also went through and change lexer names
to match the lexer names I already have in Notepad2-mod.
- I also made file extension associations match those in Np2.
- I also changed color schemes for a handful of lexers to match my Np2 color schemes.

Maybe when you update the master lexer, you could create/use some kind of export/import/merge
type of file that would only update the specific fields of specific lexers?
Then users could review/delete items from that file before merging in updates?
... just a thought ...

Hm, Don't think it's a good idea. Few users need such merge changes. Only style separate file needed.
When Ur AHK will be OK (give it time), send me your AHK.LCF.

made file extension associations match

If OK ext added, send me list (just list what ext are added)

Greetings.

Today I decided to sync my NP++ lexer with Np2m&SyW
(even though I only ever use NP++ for AHK ...)
I had several (sizable) xml files open in SyW, and
several times SyW gave me an error message / popup ... something like~

Cannot focus on hidden window

I had to close & restart SyW several times. Maybe someone else is familiar with that?

I also could not find any way to "tile" file views ... not horizontally nor vertically.
It would be nice if that were possible.

The SyW assembler lexer does not have a "String" category.
Both NP++ & Np2m do, so I added that category to SyW.

The SyW "move right one word" seems to move a few characters too many -
at least compared to virtually all other apps ...

It still seems to me that manually entering your incremental lexer changes
is the only way for me to keep in sync with your lexer changes.
I have too many custom lexer settings.

You mentioned making some changes/fixes to SyW that are not in 2.7.150.
Are they available for download?

I'm going to try to create my own AEN language file for the menu bar items ...
I did that for NP++

You can drag the tab line down to get a second "tiled" window. See here: Image: http://img811.imageshack.us/img811/4861/unbenannt1cx.png

I can see no error in function "move right one word (ctrl+right)". Maybe it depends on file encoding or lexer that is used? Can you provide sample or example?

>string. I added that category to SyW.
Ok. Send me your Asm lexer later.

Asm: added string. If u have more add-ons for Asm, send me pls.

Is there any way to control how (not if) SyW will highlight links?
Not the toggle on/off but the color ...

I'm looking for the best synhiliting for rtf code.
LaTex is the best by default I guess but not good enough.

Thanks. It seems to be only for a split view of the same file? Is there some way to tile viewing different files?

I don't want to write a long explanation. SyW moves past commas, for example»
SingleInstance, FORCE. SyW will move to F. All other apps will move to ,
One could seemingly try/find lots of other examples.

Alextp wrote:>Cannot focus on hidden window

Hard to say for sure. Download NP++.7z. Try out the stylers.model.xml, config.xml & myUDL
I have SyW set to "Watch, reload w/o question".
I was making changes via the NP++ GUI and SyW was quietly reloading.
I was un/commenting some xml lines.
I was doing Find/Replace ...

I use assembler to format the VirtualDub jobs file, which says in it»

// VirtualDub job list (Sylia script format)
// This is a program generated file -- edit at your own risk.

I also use assembler to format m3u & pls playlists ...

I use PERL to format aviSynth scripts.
The next / a future release of Np2mod is supposed to indclude native .avs formatting.
Anyone who could tell me how to create a patch to Np2mod to improve the AHK synhiliting?
Np2mod says, "Don't ask for changes without providing a patch ..."
