SAS & Notepadd++ (adding new programming Language set)?

KJohnson · Nov 10, 2015, 4:39 PM

Is there any chance that Note++ has any development work towards adding SAS* to is programming language list? I for one find it an awesome tool for working with JavaScript and am now working in a SAS shop. …and was wondering if there was any other demand out there. *(As in SAS.com) It’s “Find in Files” feature would make sharing/borrowing other in house code in SAS a breeze. At the least I wish I could program it to know the difference in comments and code. TIA -Keith

For the time being, you might want to add SAS as a user defined language.

I would appreciate this feature, too!

Hello,

do you know that Cath Lawrence did create an UDL already?

I’m using the UDL language prepared by Cath Lawrence that I found on the wiki. Is there any way to alter the appearance of the colours of text when they contain key words?

For example if I type dataset1, at the moment ‘data’ ‘set’ and ‘1’ are all displaying in the keyword colours, all different that is. I just want it to be basic black text.

Can you it from recognizing the key words when they’re part of a longer string?

Thanks

Hello Daniel-Grint,

if you click on Language->User defined…
the dialog appears. Here you can set your preferences as you wish.
I think the solution to your reported issue is to put the folding keywords from
first to second style box.
