When working with Linux, I use Kwrite to edit shell-scripts.
At work, I must use Windows as development platform, and I appreciate Notepad++ to edit my shell-scripts.
What I think it lacks to it is the ability to fold shell-structures (if/fi, case/esac, {while|for|select|until}/done) in addition to braces ( { and } ).
Of course, it's possible to generate a "userDefine", but the syntax highlighting isn't as good as the integrated one.
Is it possible either to extend the folding capacities, or to offer to users the possibility to extend folding capacities of the different languages (properties files associated to the language, for example) ?
Anyway, it's already a GREAT tool !

P.S. I hope my English is good enough to let you understand it ...
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
May be my request was not clear enough ...
I had like, when editing shell scripts, to have the block-folding possibility, in addition to braces on :
- if /fi
- case / esac
- for / done
- while /done
- select / done
- until / done
This could be extended by properties files associated to the programming language, permitting anyone to choose wether it uses or no this possibility.
Would it be very complicated to implement ?
