    I was wondering if there is any way for me to edit the asp language (instead of having to create a user defined language) from using vbscript to perlscript. I have already tried editing the langs.xml and langs.model.xml files to no effect.
    Does anybody have any suggestions?

      If you only iwwish to add custom words to the existing classes, you can do so from Styler Configurator.

      Otherwise, you have to edit LexASP.cxx, edit langs.xml and stylers.xml accordingly (plus any other theme file you use), rebuild Scilexer.dll and rebuild Notepad++.

      I wonder if this is not simpler than writing a plugin for external language support - did you try those from the Plugin Interface Library?
