EditPlus .stx file for NSIS
Hi!

I have made a .stx file for EditPlus. An .stx file is a sytax highlighting file for EditPlus. I am pretty sure that with a little change it can be used with every other syntax highlighter out there.

Enjoy :D

Hi kichik,

thank you, I've copied the contents to my usertype.dat and know I have NSIS syntax-hilighting in VC++ :)

Hi kichik,

Add #LINECOMMENT2=# to your stx file... to be compliant with the documentation. ;)

UltraEdit wordfile for NSIS
And in case anyone wants a wordfile (syntax highlighting) for UltraEdit, see the thread http://forums.winamp.com/showthread....545#post444545

Florian: question
Florian,

How do you add the stx to VC++ (I have v6.0)? I'm not sure how you added it to the dat file (I don't even have one).

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,

simply create a usertype.dat in the common\msdev98\bin folder of Visual Studio and add the NSIS-strings to it.
Then change the registry key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\DevStudio\6.0\Text Editor\Tabs\Language Settings\C/C++\FileExtensions

from

cpp;cxx;c;h;hxx;hpp;inl;tlh;tli;rc;rc2

cpp;cxx;c;h;hxx;hpp;inl;tlh;tli;rc;rc2;nsi;nsh

Then restart VC++ and your nsi- and nsh-files would be full colored :)

The bad thing about that is, that I've NSIS-syntax-hilighting also within my cpp-files. But there is a little DevStudio-AddIn at CodeGuru which makes live with multiple synatx-highlighting schemes easier.
