Syntax Highlighting for Andover Plain English Language programs in Notepad++
Syntax Highlighting for Andover Plain English Language programs
The easiest way to install is to use the User Defined Language GUI.
First download the andover_plain_english.xml file from this
repository. You can do this via the Releases page in GitHub
here.
Using the menus, go to Language > Define your language… > Import.
Find the andover_plain_english.xml you downloaded, and open that.
Close and restart Notepad++. When you open it back up, you should see
andover plain english underneath Define your language. Click that
and you should see your file highlighted!
I’m not sure that I’ve come across a global standard extension for these
files. I’ve chosen .and (for Andover) to be the general extension for
files in this language. If the file ends with .and, it should
automatically be highlighted with the logic in this file. If you prefer
a different default extension, it is easy to change in the User Defined
Language editor (it’s at the top to the right of the Import… and
Export buttons).
