How to get .inc file to be accepted as a .php for auto syntax highlighting ?

Marco Czen

Guys,

Notepad++ has been great for editing.
No issues with syntax highlighting for all *.php files.

When i open *.inc files , I have to go to

Language -> P -> PHP every time to get syntax highlighting as a PHP file.

As i am only working on php projects right now, i was wondering how to get the *.inc file recognized as a *.php file.

Thanks.

if the extension hasn’t been mapped to another language already you can add it via
style configurator->php and add it in user ext. field.

Seems to be already used, see langs.xml:

    <Language name="pascal" ext="pas pp p inc lpr" commentStart="{" commentEnd="}">

@chcg - thx for checking :-)
@Marco-Czen if pascal isn’t of any interest for you, remove it and add it to php.

Cheers

Hi, i dont seem to have a lang.xml in my Notepad++ folder.

There is however a langs.model.xml file.

Is this the same thing or is there another location for this langs.xml file ?

C:\Users<username>\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++
