XY Script: Color Syntax for EditPadPro

Post by **TheQwerty** » 26 Feb 2008 15:13

Meh.. just discovered I accidentally omitted Rename from the clipbook (and also the reasons why I quit using Google's code hosting for things like this).

Anyhow the TCL has been updated, and both files have been moved into their repository so the update links are:
The TextPad syntax highlighter definitions is here:
http://xyplorer.googlecode.com/svn/trun ... plorer.syn
The Textpad clipbook is here:
http://xyplorer.googlecode.com/svn/trun ... plorer.tcl

http://code.google.com/p/xyplorer/source/browse/trunk
Again, the .syn is the TextPad syntax highlighter definitions.
And the .tcl is the TextPad clipbook.

I can't download them this time.

How to do it?

Hmmm.. try these then:

http://xyplorer.googlecode.com/svn/trun ... plorer.syn
The Textpad clipbook is here:
http://xyplorer.googlecode.com/svn/trun ... plorer.tcl

Works, thanks!

This is completely off topic and I apologize. But, anytime I hear mention of text editing software I always feel the need to plug notepad++.

If you get a chance to check it out I highly recommend it.

http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm

Since it seems like a fair amount of the posters here are familiar with EditPad I may have to check it out to see what it is all about

Well, I was just messing around with the scripting using my text editor of choice (PSPad) and decided to make up a syntax highlighter file and also a clip definition file. So, if there are any other PSPad users out there you can go grab them here:
http://www.box.net/shared/ythdry3w44

*Sorry, but this is the first time I've made either a syntax file or a clip definition file so if they're not very good I apologize.

Wow, looks like a lot of good work!

May I put them to the support page with your name attached?

Of course! I would feel honored.

The descriptions in the definition file were taken pretty much straight from the XYwiki...I hope that's okay???

Yep, I think so. Ask jacky...

No it certainly is not! Is there's one thing the XYwiki has not been made for, it's to help people and hopefully get them to learn more about XY. If you guys are going there to learn about your favorite application then we have all failed!

(Just to be clear, cause you never know: of course it's okay. I mean the wiki is here to hopefully help people make the most of XY, and if you want to use PSPad to do that while obviously EditPadPro is a better choice, well, who am I to stop you?

Having no idea of PSPad, what is a "clip definition file"?

Well, hardcore coders use VIM anyway. You know, the "a tool and not a toy" approach.

Assuming it's similar to TextPad's clippings book. It displays a list of items that can be double clicked to insert at the cursor or around the highlighted text.

I used it for "code completion" for the various methods (addstr, substr, etc.). CTRL+Space will bring up a list of the XYScript methods. Choosing one from the pop-up window will also stub in the variables. But I _think_ you can also use it to insert if-else statements and such, although I'm not for sure on that one.

Since my editor of choice is UltraEdit, i played around with the (syntax highlighting) wordfile and came up with this first version:

Code: Select all

/L20"XYplorer Script" Nocase Line Comment = // Escape Char = \ String Chars = "' File Extensions = XYS
/Delimiters = ~!^&*()-+=|\/{}[]:;"'` ,	.
/Function String = "%\"*"
/Open Brace Strings =  "{" "(" "["
/Close Brace Strings = "}" ")" "]"
/Open Fold Strings = "{"
/Close Fold Strings = "}"
/C1"Control Structures" STYLE_KEYWORD
;

/C2"Built-in Variables" STYLE_VARIABLE
<base> <clipboard> <curbase> <curext> <curfolder> <curitem> <curname> <curpath> <curpath_s> <curver> <focitem> <items> <item1> <item2> <srcbase> <srcext> <srctitle> <srcver> <xyexe> <xydata> <xypath>

How to add this wordfile to UltraEdit

Keep in mind: This first version is far from perfect yet. I still need to optimize things like Indents, Braces and functions strings.
Updates will follow.
