    Nozza Wales - 2008-01-09

    I have a user defined language working fine. It highlights the keywords (in blue for me), and the api file allows me control-click to autocomplete. So everything is working as it should.

    Is there a way to get NPP to auto UPPER CASE the keywords I have defined? It can highlight them in blue, but I would also like NPP to automatically convert the text from lower case or CamelCase to UPPER CASE as well as highlighting the keyword (in blue!).

    Many thanks for a fine product

      No, this is not possible. You could search for utilities on the forum that can do this for you.

      I suggest to take a look at www.andre-simon.de for the WinHighlight tool. This can mark-up files by applying language definitions, which is something the NppExport Plug-In does as well directly from Notepad++. But the WinHighlight stand-alone execuable also has a feature for refactoring/reformatting. One simple checkbox allows you to uppercase all the keywords defined in your language. Of course, you also have to define your language in the WinHighlight format.
