[*:2tybjj8t]This is my version of Notepad++'s UserDefinedLang.xml for AutoHotkey syntax highlighting. Made for Notepad++ v5.6.6

Current: v0.5
Download userDefLang.xml

The file goes in %appdata%\Notepad++. Remember to restart npp after the file is changed.

[*:2tybjj8t]I also have an API file for autocompletion of functions and commands with param tips on functions.

Current: v0.1
Download AutoHotkey.xml

Put it in %InstallDir%\plugins\APIs. Remember to restart npp after changes.
Then make sure to go into Settings > Preferences > Backup/Autocompletion tab and turn autocompletion on.
(I prefer: both checked, top option, and "3 th" character)

[*:2tybjj8t]You can download my current sylers.xml here:

Updated.

[*:1rilqv21]Added commas, parens, and other operators to the Operators section. This fixes cases where quoted text comes directly after a paren or other operator but doesn't highlight properly. It also simplifies and fixes command keywords without trailing spaces.
[*:1rilqv21]Added #NoEnv (forgot last time)
[*:1rilqv21]Broke the % highlighting somewhat.

Can I see a screenshot before I decide to switch?

I'm also to lazy to 'test' it.

I'm also too lazy to 'test' it.

Whoa! I didn't know there was such a thing as being too lazy. :shock:

I added the screenshot.

Excellent work, I've finally made the switch from toralfs PSPad. You should ask the Notepad++ developers to include your AutoHotkey files in their official release, then Chris can recommend it in the documentation as the preferred editor.

[Delusion]

a portable notepad++ with everything needed for ahk

[SoLong&Thx4AllTheFish]

Perhaps post the material on the AutoHotkey wiki so more people can maintain it and fix any bugs that might arise for future versions of AutoHotkey and/or Notepad++

All I always wanted.
