I just put the file userDefineLang.xml in the same dir as Notepad++ and it works immediately (tested on Win98 & W2K)

Yes, npp has the option to not use AppData dir. It depends on options you set when you installed it.

I've tried placing AHK Autohotkey.xml inside

C:\Documents and Settings\meaccount\Application Data\Notepad++


and as C:\Program Files\Notepad++\UserDefineLang.xml

but still no highlighting when I load a .ahk file.

Have I missed something?

I'm using NPP V5.03 on Windows XP pro sp3

I had the same problem with v5.03 on 2k sp4. I got it working by opening an .ahk file, selecting AHK Autohotkey from the Language menu and restarting Notepad++.

Out of curiosity why doesn't anyone upload a fully working customized version of Notepad++ Portable for AHK?
It's easy enough to do!
It'd be great for all the newbies...

I use a portable version for all my needs, It weighs in at 10 MB extracted (5 MB compressed) includes help files for notepad++

Should I upload it in Autohotkey.net? or is there another place where we can upload all portable versions of editors with full AHK support?

Features:
- AHK Syntax Highlighting
- Function List (not as good as toralf's ActiveGoTo)
- Execute Script (from run command)
- All of Notepad++ v5.0.3 great features!

You're welcome. I think, the best place to do so is a new section in the Wiki "Editors and usefull things".

How do i do that? I have tried finding/editing it in the wiki, but no luck
How do i add a new page? a new category? ...etc? I am logged in and can edit pages but no way to create them?

Until then i've uploaded it to auothokey.net

Features:
- All of Notepad++ v5.0.3 great features!
- AHK Syntax Highlighting
- Function List (not as good as toralf's ActiveGoTo)
- Execute Script (from run command)
- Several AHK scripts, tested with Notepad++:
- toralf's ActiveGoTo
- ISense15 combined with Context sensitive help
- Compile AHK
- AHK Script Tester

Never mind, got it. Created the Category Editors
and this page

http://www.autohotkey.com/wiki/index.php?title=Notepad%2B%2B

How do i upload the file to the wiki directly?

I don't really know. I would put your link on to the page.

Thanks for your work. Seems to be a good compilation.

This is so cool! I want more things like this! Are there similar complete solutions available anywhere? This is like almost like a complete IDE. I love it. I hope there are updates in the future that include even more wonderful things, and I hope I can find them!

Updating it is easy. Just download the latest zip for notepad++ from http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm and unzip into wherever you've extracted it.

As for any other compilations. I don't know of any. But it's sure easy to make, especially for Scite since there's an AutoIt version already that can be customized for AHK.

You know how the isense thing is sposta open that help window like a tooltip or something when u press ctrl+space after the command, well it's just opening the autocomplete helper box back up with the list of commands but not the help browser that shows the documentation page for the command with this portable notepad++

Notepad++ > Settings > Preferences > Backup/Auto-completion > Uncheck the "Enable Auto-Completion on each input"

This way, only Isense will give you autocomplete. You might be confused between Isense & notepad++ autocomplete.... (Isense autocomplete has a small "x" to close the box.)

Next Isense (1.5), has it's quirks... currently it has a problem with using Tab for selecting a command ( use comma for now)
[Isense 1.5.4 doesn't have this problem but then i haven't gotten around to integrating the F1 & Alt+F1 features that i really like in there, so i'm still using this, you can easily switch though]

Furthermore it only starts sensing after an ENTER key has been pressed( so press enter, then type something)

The tooltip display is working for me and i'm using the same package... are you sure the script is running? You have to run the script first... you'll see a small black "is" icon in the system tray.

If want to see help for a selected keyword, you can press F1 - for a seperate window, or Alt+F1 - for a tooltip.

While the tooltip is visible it captures scrolling keys...

HTH

It's worth mentioning that - hallelujah! - the % problem is solved in this portable version... Not sure if it's a result of 5.03, or changes to the userDefineLang file, but no more blocks of orange!

A big thanks to Vixay for pulling this together.

thanks for share
