User-Defined Language | Code Folding with 'double' keyword

Andreas R.

Hi,

is there a way to denote a keyword (for folding) that it should be considered only if it is the first word in a line?

Unfortunately Microsoft Visual FoxPro uses FOR in two very different meanings:

As a loop
FOR n = 1 TO 3
?n
ENDFOR
As a condition when replacing table contents:
REPLACE Table.this WITH “A” FOR Table.that = “B”

You may imagine that FOR in sample 2 does not start a loop. Notepad++ should not consider it. What can I do?

Thank you
A. R.

afaik, no.
What comes into my mind would be two ugly hacks.

Assuming Visual FoxPro is case insensitive make it case sensitive and use
different cases.
Define the FOR loop keyword with an always to use variable
like “FOR n” as the open folding part.

Ugly, said it.

Cheers
