<![CDATA[[New plugin] Linter++ - Linter plugin with message navigation.]]>Hi - I hope this is the right place for announcing new plugins.

Anyway, I used to use the now defunct JsLintNpp plugin for checking my javascript. But it stopped working, so I moved onto the Linter plugin. But I really missed the docking window with a list of errors.

So I’ve done my best to put them together, in the Linter++ plugin - which is available here if it’s not got into the plugin list yet: https://github.com/ThosRTanner/notepad-pp-linter/releases

It uses an XML file for configuration (which it still sets up as completely empty, which isn’t great and I will address that). However, the actual configuration is somewhat different to the linter plugin, as it allows you to:

  • Set up previous/next error shortcut keys
  • Select an indicator style and colour
  • Use windows %…% variables when setting up your command to execute

It also will display any errors it got when running the selected lint command(s) in a separate tab in the plugin dialogue window so hopefully it will be easier to determine what is going on when things don’t behave as expected / desired.

Read the readme for more details.

Any issues, open an issue on github or you can post in this topic

Two changes of significance here:

  • Deal properly with raw UTF8 characters in checkstyle output (mainly from jshint)
  • Added two items to the plugin menu
    • Help which opens the Readme on github pages
    • About which produces a small modal dialogue with the version and a clickable link to the project github repo.

This has mostly been concerned with changes to the dockable window with the results:

  • You can click on a column header to sort by that column
  • You can drag the column headers to reorder the columns
  • You can configure the font used for display

There’ve also been a few other minor improvements/fixes - see the Changes.md file

Downloadable from https://github.com/ThosRTanner/notepad-pp-linter/releases if you can’t wait for the plugin list to be updated.

Most obvious changes:

  • Works properly in 32 bit mode
  • Ability to switch linting off and on - mainly for people with slow PCs
  • Double clicking on an error in the ‘system’ tab will open a new notepad++ buffer and provide more detail on the error
  • Ability to define your own variables to be used in commands.

This is available at the same page as above.
