function list: I made an XML for one liner HTML comments

[Stephan Romhart 0]

I Just wanted to share the XML for HTML comments.

Sometimes I have long static HTML files that need to be structured with one liner comments. Since I am german, I added german Umlaute like äöüÄÖÜ and ß.

To enable HTML for the function list, you have to edit overrideMap.xml in
C:\Program Files\Notepad++\functionList

1. Add HTML as user defined language

<association id="html.xml" userDefinedLangName="HTML" />

2. Make new XML file, save it as html.xml and copy the following code in it. The copy the xml file in C:\Program Files\Notepad++\functionList

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<NotepadPlus>
	<functionList>
		<parser displayName="HTML" id="html_comment" commentExpr="(?s:/\*.*?\*/)|(?m-s://.*?$)">
			<function mainExpr="\x3C!-- [A-Za-z\xe4\xf6\xfc\xc4\xd6\xdc\xdf#' -_,.!=?]* --\x3E">
				<functionName>
					<nameExpr expr=" \K[A-Za-z\xe4\xf6\xfc\xc4\xd6\xdc\xdf#' -_,.!=?]* " />
				</functionName>
			</function>
		</parser>
	</functionList>
</NotepadPlus>
