I've been trying to set up a user-defined language to make reading an application-specific log file easier. These files include lines like this:
some prefix or other <: important bit of information that I want highlighting in some way\n
(Note that the "\n" is a backslash char then a lower-case 'n')
I hoped to be able to highlight the message portion by defining a comment block as starting with '<:' and ending with '\n'. The '\n' works fine but '<:' is not recognised.
Is this possible in Notepad++?
(I'm using v4.1.2 of notepad)
Thanks!
John

Aha! I've just updated to Notepad++ 4.4 and... it works!
Great!
