Nobody/Anonymous - 2007-10-09

I'm using Notepad++ for scripting for a video game, so I have a *lot* of Macros, commands, variables, and string names that I'd like to be able to sort and classify at a glance.

I'd be interested, if it's possible, in how to add a full language definition rather than the limited number of catagories available when using the User Defined Dialog.  If I have to write it out by hand I can stumble my way through that, but any suggestions or tutorials on how to do so would be handy.

My second problem, since I can almost work it out so that everything I want to define fits within the available catagories in the Definition Dialog, is the lack of Wildcards.  Is there no way to set wildcards for/within the keywords?  I see the Prefix option, and that sort of solved a few of my problems, but a lot of variables in this scripting language end up getting tracked with letter/number combinations like V5 or G1001.  Some wildcards and integer-only wildcards for the keywords would help me out, although I don't know how important that'd be for other people.  Or is it possible to set wildcards in the Syntax Highlighting and I'm just missing it?

And then last, I'd love to be able to set a user defined bracket thing like the Brace Highlight/Bad Brace.  The scripting language I'm using uses the > brackets.  Admittedly they're usually pretty short lines (one or two lines long at most) but it'd be nice to be able to see at a glance if one has been left hanging open.  Not all that critical though.
