I am afraid it is far from real to be done. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _@Vany @feef_ Why not? For Jan it is not a big effort, the functions are already there! I have already programmed this feature for AutoIt, and it works! I programmed it from the outside, but there are some drawbacks, e.g. that I lose a whole highlighter section, or that every time I highlight text, the hard drive is accessed, or it only works for AutoIt, but not for other languages, and much more. It's NOT hard to build it in internally from PSPad! Outside I have no events, I have to work with tricks. But Jan has events, it's much easier. The functions are also available to him: Searching inside the active editor, and highlighting "whatever he wants". >From the outside, I used VBScript and AutoIt-Script to monitor if text is highlighted, then I wrote it into the highlighter file and all occurrences were highlighted. If no text was marked, I removed the entry from the highlighter file. This is complicated and requires write access to the file and the hard disk each time. >From inside PSPad this is much easier! No reason not to include such an important feature in PSPad! _@PSPad_ Please Jan, I have already sent you several eMails about this feature and have made several requests here in the forum. But you have not answered any. Please build this feature into PSPad. Almost all other editors have this feature, but not PSPad. PSPad has many other strengths that other editors do not have. I love PSPad. But this is a really important feature that PSPad needs, and it's for all languages. Bernd.
