DF Modding / Notepad++ highlighting mod remade v1.2 "Comments and dark mode improved"
« on: May 22, 2016, 10:23:08 am »
Hi everyone!
This is my first utility mod for Dwarf Fortress. This is expanded version of "Notepad++ raw file highlighting mode" made by Kazimuth, since he seems to have abandoned it, and the Bay12Forums, his post can be found here: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=130510
What does it do?
This file can be used by Notepad++ editor to highlight syntax used in Dwarf Fortress moding. You can change the default colours I chose by following the instructions down below or in the download file. You can see how it looks here:
What's new?
How to use it?
A simple how-to guide is included in with the download or you can check the spoiler here:
Download
Mod file and how-to guide can be downloaded here: http://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=12053
Progress so far.
So far I've managed to give it a basic functionality I wanted. You can open any file like d_init.txt in data folder or entity_default.txt in raw folder and get a helpful highlighting. I'm not sure if i have included all the tokens so if anything is missing please let me know.
Known issues.
Some tokens are used differently in different files so sometimes some odd words may be highlighted, event though they shouldn't be highlighted here, but they are useful elsewhere.
Comments, highlighted blue, are highlighted black after colon, ":", there is nothing I can do about that, it's just a limitation imposed by Notepad++.
Found any errors, missing tokens, etc.?
If you do please comment here.
