nqq uses CodeMirror for syntax highlighting, which is based on Javascript: https://github.com/notepadqq/CodeMirror

Excuse me, but I'm far from it. You can help the porting XML from a NPP in NQQ?

[darealshinji]

I could take a look at it, but I can't promise anything. Do you have an amxmodx pawn document that I can use?

[trollqaa]

Excuse me, what documentation is required?
There is only a description of the functions. But I do not think that's what you need.
In fact, you just need to port this syntax and all.
Autosubstitution not required, because there is always something to add. Sometimes it does not deliver what you need =)

[darealshinji]

I just need code in that amxmodx pawn format for testing so that I can check if the syntax highlighting in NQQ is the same as in NPP.

[trollqaa]

That is one of the plugins
If you need more, I can throw.

Hello.
Not viewed?
Several projects hangs from the inability to work fine under Linux. We have to work on Windows, and then switch to linux: D

[darealshinji]

The syntax C-like, so you can change the language highlighting to something like C++ or C#.

[trollqaa]

I understand that, but you know, when you write something, is not uncommon errors in the name of the function / native, and so on.
It is difficult to work :)

[trollqaa]

Just if you find it difficult or particular desire not, you tell me.
I will think then towards other editors

@neygomon as @darealshinji said, you should refer to CodeMirror: https://github.com/codemirror/CodeMirror
That's where syntax highlighters get implemented.

[trollqaa]

@danieleds, I would gladly have made myself, if you would understand how and what to do.
And also, it does not create issue, if there was at least some documentation for migrating from NPP XML syntax to NQQ

[trollqaa]

Bump =)

[danieleds]

It's not possible to migrate XMLs from Notepad++ to Notepadqq. They're completely different formats. The best way is to write it from scratch.

This is the CodeMirror documentation for writing modes (aka syntax highlighters): https://codemirror.net/doc/manual.html#modeapi

And this is an example of a syntax highlighter for makefiles written by a Notepadqq contributor: https://github.com/notepadqq/CodeMirror/blob/5.3.0-nqq/mode/makefile/makefile.js

Happy coding!

[trollqaa]

Well, you can do it?
Not for free, of course ...

[trollqaa]

Bump!
