Hi Alasdair, i fiddled with SciTE some years ago and ended with a file myproperties.properties in the programdata\scite directory.
In this file i set the fonts and my context command as follows: ---- # Codepages # UTF-8 code.page=65001 output.code.page=65001 # Byte # code.page=0 position.left=25 position.top=25 position.width=1870 position.height=1000 font.base=font:Consolas,size:15 font.monospace=$(font.base) font.errorfont=$(font.base) font.comment=$(font.base) font.text=$(font.base) font.text.comment=$(font.base) font.embedded.base=$(font.base) font.embedded.comment=$(font.base) font.vbs=$(font.base) command.1.$(file.patterns.context)=cmd /c context $(FileNameExt) && start sumatraPDF $(FileName).pdf -reuse-instance ---- The last line of SciTEGlobal.properties is import myproperties This works ok for me.
