What's the best anybody's managed to get Notepad++ to syntax-highlight
D? (I'm on version 5.4.5, if that makes a difference.)
My userDefineLang.xml file is as given here
http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?EditorSupport/NotepadPlus
(note that I've fixed a few errors I've no idea how got there).
Notepad++ does a good job of syntax-highlighting PHP files, whose
syntactic structure is more complex than that of D. So clearly,
Notepad++ is a powerful syntax-highlighter (or Scintilla is, whatever).
However, at the moment I can't even seem to get it up to C standard!
(Can anybody find a full reference of the userDefineLang.xml format, for
that matter?)
Maybe it's just a case in point of some comments here:

Anyway, attached is the result. Can anybody do better (other than by
telling it to treat D as C or some other language instead)?
Or maybe I should just go back to TextPad (which isn't perfect either)
and put up with its not supporting Unicode....
Stewart.
