OpenSCAD highlighter for Notepad++

pinshape

Similar to nerd256, who added an OpsenScad syntax highlighter to Linux's Kate editor, I decided to upload the one I use for the popular Notepad++ editor on Windows. UPDATE: After using it awhile, I discovered some quirks that are now remedied in v2.0. UPDATE 2: There are now instructions on how to launch OpenSCAD with the current file from Notepad++! Instructions To install code highlighting... Download the XML config file from this thing. Open Notepad++ and go to the menu: Settings -> Import -> Import Style Themes Select the XML file. Any already-opened .scad files you may have to select OpenScad from the Language menu for the changes to take effect. ======= To allow opening of a SCAD file in OpenSCAD from N++... 1. In N++, hit F5. 2. Type in the following (including quotes): "C:\Program Files\OpenSCAD\openscad.exe" "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)" 2a. You may need to tweak that slightly if you installed somewhere non-default. 3. Hit the "Save..." button and give it a creative name like "OpenSCAD" and a keyboard shortcut if you want. Now there should be a new entry in the Run menu that opens a new OpenSCAD instance with the current file!
