Get description for a highlighted word

[Jose Cunha]

Hi,
I would like to add a new language for syntax highliting, but i would also like to get easy access to a description of the highighted word. So for example i would add “gethelp” and when that is highlited in m,y document i could in an easy way (double click? side menu?) get a description “This command is used to get help”.

Hope i made it clear enough, Thanks.

Hello @Jose-Cunha,

you can use UDL (Language->Define your language) to create the syntax highlighting and create an api.xml
(check …\plugins\APIs\php.xml for more information) to get the hints on a function etc…

Cheers
