Re:SciTE

Hello Deepak T.

Welcome among us.
First, one remark on the mailing list (ML) policy: you have sent a message
about SciTE to the ML about Scintilla, the source editor component that is a
sub-part of SciTE. Although some proposed changes have to be performed on
Scintilla level...
These different MLs (scintilla-interest <at> lyra.org and
scite-interest <at> lyra.org) are confusing at first :-)
And second remark, perhaps try to make more explicit subjects, like "SciTE
improvement suggestions", because most messages here are about SciTE (or
Scintilla) ;-)

> Hello, SciTE is the best programmers editor I have found so far.

I agree totally! The best part is that if there is something wrong or
missing, you can add it (more or less, I don't think Neil will approve a different
setting format, for example).

Seems useful and non intrusive, and probably not bloating, so seems OK.

It is useful but has some gotchas.

Some time ago, I started to write specificiations of some shortcuts I would
like to have while typing HTML. I never wrote the corresponding code, because
partly because it targeted a specific kind of file; partly because I felt it
may belong to macros, even as there is still no official integrated
scripting language; and partly because of lack of time.

Excerpt of this (unfinished) document:
Shift+Enter: inserts <br> and a carriage return.
Ctrl+Enter: inserts a carriage return, <p></p> and let the cursor between
the two tags.
Ctrl+Space: inserts &nbsp;
F8 (for example), performs various tasks depending on the context (selected
text or not, etc.).
Among tasks to do:
- Convert high-Ascii characters (and < > &) to entities and back. Very
useful for foreign languages :-) Either switch inside the selection, or convert
the character just before the caret (ie. type è+F8 then get &egrave;). The list
of entities to convert must be given in an external file, so everybody can

RE: XML, HTML auto close tag

Philippe,
I've looked at XML-Spy and what Visual Studio.NET does and it's much more
like how you said.
When you press the '>' it'll fill in the </tagname> part for you and put
your cursor between the > and < characters.
With XML-Spy I've found it rather annoying since it's what I want maybe half
of the time.  On the other hand I seem to be editing XML more than creating
content.
If I have the time this week I'd like to program your suggestion for the >
as well. I'd also like to fix up my code so that it works for multi-line
tags.
The other suggestions I thing could be added to the abbreviations file by
augmenting the abbreviations to allow for key combinations, not a bad idea I
think.
-Scott

XML, HTML auto close tag

The code now works even if the tag spans several lines.
Added PHP and ASP and took out CPP as lex languages.
I haven't had time implement any of the other suggestions.
