How support is there for this?
in the zip file there is a modified version of SciTEGlobal.properties.
With this file you can use extended brace highlighting.
Sorry, I mangled my grammar: what I wanted to know was how much
support there was from others for including this.
Oh, I stared at your initial comment, wondering how to interpret it...
So that's not my English going South... :-)
On the off chance that this is the right place for asking, what is the
point of this "double-brace highlighting" stuff?
Same here, I am wondering if I find this thing "cool" or "useless"...
One point in highlighting the "matching" brace is that it highlight the
brace we will jump to when hitting Ctrl+E.
And we can see the other brace by moving the caret one position.
I looked at the posted picture and all, but... how would one actually
get anything out of the feature? I am presumably missing something
"key" (pun sort of intended), but don't I lose the cool Ctrl-E and
Ctrl-Shift-E functionality?
That make me think:
In PHP, the brace highlighting works only when I am on the right of a
brace (parenthesis, square brace). If I hit Ctrl+E, I go to the left of
the matching brace and I can't Ctrl+E back...
How come? Can this be changed or is this a limitation of the crowded
HTML lexer?
SciTE itself has the "braces.sloppy" option for allowing braces on
both sides of the cursor being checked (with priority given to a brace
char BEFORE the cursor) - this should not have lexer-specific behavior
AFAIK. I just checked, and this does work with the html lexer.
The only thing that I am not clear on is the behavior of the "<>"
chars - Scintilla hard-codes them as being part of the set checked for
matching, but I am unable to elicit any brace-matching behavior with
these chars.
In my Scintilla client app(s), I consider this "sloppy" behavior the
default - in fact, I do not give a configure option for disabling it! :)
(I am aware I already asked and Neil answered, but I can't find back the
answer in the archives. Sorry for that.)
I just don't see it, but that doesn't have to reflect on whether the
idea is a good or not... ;)
Same here. If this goes official, I would activate it (it must be
optional of course) and see if I find it useful or if I deactivate it.
Yes.
