If you go to notepad-plus-plus.org and click on “resources” on the left side and scroll down to “User Defined Languages” there’s a link that takes you to the wiki page for UDLs. Unity3d is in the list. At the end of the list there are directions on how to install a UDL. C# is included with NPP. If you’re not looking for two different languages but one super specific flavor of Unity3d, you may have to edit an existing UDL or create your own.

Good Luck

As a follow on, I found a couple minutes to play a bit with the pretty-print and validate: the pretty-print does seem to work on a selection; the validate seemed to use the whole document, even when I just had the small segment selected. Though since I’m not good at XML, I could be wrong in my interpretation.

However, while the XML Tools pretty-print does work with individual selections, I had forgotten you said there may be thousands, which means it won’t be very efficient. I think the three-step search+replace/xml tools/search+replace is probably the best in-Notepad++ option.

For me already installed xml tools are workiing fine with n++ 7.5.7 64bit on win10. XML tools are 2.4.9.2, installed by plugin manager.
@Alessandro-Tari Which plugin version do you use? 32bit or 64bit? How did you install the XML tools?

I had the same error and reported an issue at CS-Script’s project page. The plugin author fixed it by releasing version 1.7.13.0. It should be available via PluginManagers developer plugin list.

The release note states:

This release is just repackaged v1.7.12.0. repackaging was required due to the Notepad++ v7.5.7 suddenly changing the hosting model, which is no longer allowing plugin entry dll to have the name that is even slightly different to the plugin name.

Found one! https://sourceforge.net/projects/notepad-linter/
Takes a little wrangling to get the xml file right, I’m using the config below. Turns out hardly anyone uses jslint or jshint anymore ( http://www.npmtrends.com/eslint-vs-jscs-vs-jshint-vs-jslint ) so this is great!
But it’s NOT in the plugin library! You need to install manually.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <NotepadPlus> <linter extension=".js" command="C:\Users\jonski\AppData\Roaming\npm\eslint.cmd --format=checkstyle"/> </NotepadPlus>

Forgot to mention - npp 7.5.7 (32-bit); SessionMgr.dll (with 32-bit fix by chcg)

thanks :)

Hello Pavel,

:+1: for understanding the OP. :)
And thank you for the quick fix.

Maybe you want to take a look at https://sourceforge.net/projects/analyseplugin/.
“AnalysePlugin will help you to search for more than one search pattern at a time. Great for analysing log files.”

@chcg
I suppose so but if I was author of existing PM how much enthusiasm would I have for that, knowing that my great plugin is future-deprecated… :-(

Much appreciated Christian, thank you.

@Scott-Sumner said:

previous memory held by T (if any) to be overwritten with new contents

What I meant here I could have said better…“overwritten” and “new contents” may be rather vague…let me try again:

Running repeatedly will cause the memory occupied by a previous T (if any) to be released, and memory to be allocated to hold the new T.

Quote: “But writing the Manual is not that interesting as developing something new, especially taking into account that there are not many people in this world who actually read any manual.”

I understand your point, but one reason why I like your plugin so much is that it provides a manual! I appreciate your effort to do this and I read it!

Also I think your plugin should provide a manual because it’s a powerful plugin with a lot of features. Most useful is the chapter “Advanced usage” but you also provide some intersting details in other sections of the manual (e.g. “Using several copies of NppExec”). And the chapter “Compiling” inspired me to write a NppExec script which turns Notepad++ into some sort of simple IDE for 12 programming languages (including Batch, VBScript, InnoSetup, TSQL, Gnuplot, C and C#).

Your plugin is for coders and I think you will find a lot of them reading manuals. Please continue your work on this regard.
