I’m using the Notepad++, Maxscript manager and maxscript.api for notepad++

Also you can find some solutions for starting maxscript from Notepad++

Thanks Track, but im not talking about other replacement, am talking about problem and problem solving… Im too use notepad++ but I prefer sublime.

Thanks for replay.

Hey Track,
I’m interested in using notepad++, I have the maxscript plugin installed and syntax highlighting working, now I just need to launch MXS from notepad++ like you suggested, could you share a link to one of the solutions you mentioned please?

Thanks!

@ Track

I too am using notepad++ to edit maxscript.
The language definition mentioned above doesn’t sort out functions so there is no “function list” like there is if I am editing in C++ or whatever.
So do you know if anyone has made a function and struct parser file for maxscript. it needs a lot of understanding of Regex which I always struggle with?
Sorry this a bit off topic but I’m not sure how to spawn from one thread into another:(

try mouse RightClick + CTRL in the built-in MXS Editor. You will see something that is better than nothing

wow that’s pretty much what I was looking for
Only now to get that same functionality in NotePad++

i was expecting that

I am not getting anything with mouse RightClick + Ctrl. I think there is something I am missing. Can you be explicit?

Thank you very much!
