Is there a way to set "PSPad - text and code editor" to format, higlight coding for AHK?

My goal is to have a more clear code. Ex.http://www.angelfire.com/ultra2/rajat/scripts/rc4.ahk.txt

If you mean syntax highlighting...do you?... have a look in the AutoHotkey\Extras\Editors\PSPad folder.
For code formatting this might help: http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=46338

BTW I use PSPad too, its brilliant!!

there was also a script quite a while ago (by Rajat, I think) that will format your code nicely. It may need to be updated. try searching the word "tidy"?

Thanks!
Auto-Syntax-Tidy v12 (from toralf) works great. I was also looking for highligh feature but I found it within the application.
1st step :
from the menu bar go to Setting \ User highlighter from the seletion window browse to Autohotkey.ini

2nd step:
On "file \ New file" a list will come up, Autohotkey is at the bottom. Or if you have open a new file without selecting Autohotkey you may switch by going from the menu bar on "View \ change syntax".

To have the help file available from the application.
Go to Setting \ Highlighter setting and in the help file field browse to C:\Program Files\AutoHotkey\AutoHotkey.chm

When this is done you can highlight a command, right click and the first option is "Help for Language". It will bring you directly to the help file for that command.

you can also run a script from the autohotkey\extras\editors\ folder to automatically add these options to pspad (and many other editors)
