On the subject of editors, there was someone a while back that wanted an editor that would edit plugins but syntax colour the script part correctly (Shadowfyr maybe).

It seems Crimson Editor may do that, although I haven't actually tested it. In its syntax colouring configuration file you can specify "ranges" for colouring. An example is PHP files, where you syntax colour scripts between <?php ... ?> differently from the HTML code which is outside those delimiters.

Thus, it would seem quite possible to have it colour between <script> ... </script> differently to elsewhere, which should solve the problem.

You could also probably colour XML keywords (like "trigger", "alias" and so on), in the non-script part.

Heh, don't pick on me Nick. ;) Seriously though, the discussion was with a number of us and about if Mushclient might at some point support something like Scintilla in its own editor. This was based on the fact that some of use already use one called SciTE, which is based on Scintilla. Crimson may be a bit more versitile though, adding coloring, like making both the XML and script parts colored, would require a major recompile of scintilla.

Hmmm.. I though we could select the editor which MUSHClient uses for script editing. Well, at least the one you get when you edit plug-in.

Yes indeed. The editor you choose in the Scripting configuration tab (if any) is used in preference to the inbuilt notepad, for both the world's script file, and editing plugins.

Yes, Cedit can color different languages in one file, I used to remeber how to do this, I know its automatic for HTML. When I remeber how, I'll post here for you guys.
