Notepad++

The recommended editor is Notepad++ Once you have installed this you need to update the "User defined langauge" feature as follows:

  • If you have defined no other language extensions yourself, you just need to download the latest version of [userDefineLang.xml] and then save this to your "Application specific data area"
  • If you have defined additional languages yourself, you need to download [userDefineLang.xml] and then "cut and paste" the GCL section of this into your existing [userDefineLang.xml] file.

To find your "Application specific data area" open an explorer window and type the path %APPDATA% This will open the top area and you should see a Notepad++ folder into which you should save the file. The final directory location will be somewhere like C:\Documents and Settings\Your_Login_Name\Application Data\Notepad++
