A beta version of upcoming SciTE4AutoHotkey v3.0.05 is now available for download. This version introduces support for the AutoHotkey v2 language (amongst other things which involve an easier/clearer style system):

Other miscellaneous improvements.

Bug-fixes:

Fixed bug that broke inner folders in Extension packages.

Other miscellaneous bug-fixes.

In order to enable AutoHotkey v2 support, %AutoHotkeyDir%\v2-alpha\x86\AutoHotkey.exe (or x64) must exist. After this, select the v2 platform using the platform selector , and .ahk files will now be detected as AHK v2 files (takes immediate effect, does not require restart).
The lexer used to process AutoHotkey v2 scripts is the one that was described in "Scintilla AHK v2 Lexer sneak peek", with some bugfixes. The following items are still not completed:

• Proper hotkey detection (hotstrings and labels already done)
• (-based continuation sections

AutoComplete/Calltips in AutoHotkey v2 code are functional, however BIFs (this also includes ex-commands) are not yet included in the list (however they are already highlighted differently). The reason for this is that I don't know which is the best way to list them: using traditional command syntax or function syntax. (I'm leaning towards the latter, however I want to hear public opinion on this). That is, which of these will be shown in the calltips:

Code: Select all

MsgBox [, Options, Title, Text, Timeout]
MsgBox([Options, Title, Text, Timeout])

A still missing feature which I intend to add in v3.0.05 is a graphical style editor. The refactoring that is necessary to implement this has already been done, so it's now just a matter of writing the actual editor.

Note: Lexikos' AutoComplete.lua requires some changes to function with AutoHotkey v2 code. I've uploaded a modified version so that Lexikos himself can fix it. Additionally it's now in Extension format (*hint* *hint*). There's also another bug when using this script in which switching from v1 to v2 (and viceversa) without restarting does not clear the word cache, causing AutoComplete to still display the old word list (however calltips are unaffected). I have not managed to fix this.
