I would like to request support for GameMonkey to be added, I cannot find any support for it for N++ anywhere as 3rd party so I figured I would bring it to your attention and see if it can get added eventually to the standard list.
From "http://www.somedude.net/gamemonkey/":
What is GameMonkey Script?
GameMonkey is a embedded scripting language that is intended for use in game and tool applications. GameMonkey is however suitable for use in any project requiring simple scripting support. GameMonkey borrows concepts from Lua (www.lua.org), but uses syntax similar to C, making it more accessible to game programmers. GameMonkey also natively supports multithreading and the concept of states.
Thanks.
I forgot to add this link....
http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/UserLanguageDefineSystem-HOWTO.php
It shows how to define your own language.
Don't forget to save it and then perhaps someone can suggest what files/parts of files you need to post up or send to a dev for inclusion.
I'm not too sure how you go about getting stuff included in Notepad++ myself... there are probably instructions floating around somewhere.
Is it possible to make notepad++ accept ultraedit language files. Or can we write a plugin that does the conversion and put it in the right directory?? I will try and see any suggestions.
*Bump*
¿?
Unless a language is fairly common, I wouldn't expect it to be directly supported as a default language.
Write your own, in other words. You may be the only npp user editing GameMonkey script.
I would suggest looking at the configuration files and posting up the language. Its nice to see new languages.
The only down side to Notepad++ supporting lots of different languages is that the list gets HUGE! I wonder if soon it won't need a better interface for choosing your language?
