This is meant for a dark theme. Change the theme by going to Settings Menu > Style Configurator.... I use "Deep Black".

The theme of Notepad++ must be dark I think

Is it possible to set dark theme only for AHK files (in NP++)?

I'd have to make a separate theme. But thats not too hard. If you dont want to wait, you can install this theme and change the colors yourself in User Defined Language menu in Notepad++.

It was actually a question about np++ which I don't know much about (if I could have one theme for AHK and the rest white) but a white theme would be great

Ah, I believe so, but I haven't ever tried that actually. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Thanks for sharing.
gives this a softer feel combining it with
HinkerLoden's style on a greenish background.
Just curious, were there items in particular set to go in
Keywords7?

I actually can't remember at the moment. I think I found that some items were split (like certain functions/commands), and I ended up taking what was there and putting it somewhere else.
This is actually modified from one of the "official" threads for Notepad++ setup (I think
this one maybe), but honestly I just can't remember.
For me, I just found the grouping of keywords in AHK to make more sense with only 7 groups, not all 8.
And actually this theme is due for an update. I just haven't got around to it yet.

Class is missing as a keyword.
I think global, local and static make more sense to be grouped with (coloured like) control flow statements rather than commands.
Is there no way for a UDL to integrate with the current Notepad++ theme?

Ok I'll make those changes.
As for UDL and theme stuff, it really depends on the user configuration of Notepad++, and there is no "cure" for near-white text against a white background.
I can come up with a few different themes. That should work out fine.
EDIT: If there were a link between UDL theme and Notepad++ theme, that would be nice, but I've never found such a link.

Great- but how can I use this?
After coping AutoHotkey v1-v2 Syntax Highlighting.xml file to
C:\Users\YOUR-USER-NAME\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\themes
it was selectable under
Settings > Style Configurator > Select theme
but after selecting it both Launguage and Style became empty and when I clicked the Save & Close button, Notepad++ just apparently crashed and closed. After opening it again, my choice was reverted to previously used theme

Yah I need to re-upload some stuff, and modify the instructions. Newer versions of Notepad++ are different from when the OP was first made. It's on my to-do list.

First, Thanks for a great theme.
Secondly, I found a "bug" when working with multiple quotes. It wrongly colors from
] onwards the rest of the ahk file. Even here on the forum it's colored wrongly.
Code: Select all
FoundPos := RegExMatch(A_LoopReadLine, '"playerName": "([^"]+)"' , &O)

I guess it's time for an update. Mine currently doesn't do that.

You got a newer developer version where it might be fixed or you think it's something on my side?
