Notepad++
This Editor is a 'must have seen'. Not only it supports several languages to
highlight - it allows you to define your own language to parse ... I'm using
this Editor to colorize the language 'SKILL' which is used in Cadence
AllegroPCB and Cadence ConceptHDL.
Here are my language definition files including a sample Skill-code file
to show the coloring and keyword recognizion:
Notepad++ needs to know the new user defined language for
'.il'-files:
SKILL user defined
language Destination folder: %APPDATA%\Notepad++
Notepad++ supports auto-completion when using this API file:
SKILL auto completion definitions Destination folder:
%NPP_INSTALL_FOLDER%\plugins\APIs
You should also try the Functionlist plugin by Jens Lorenz, here is the definition file for function detection:
SKILL Functionlist definition Destination folder: %APPDATA%\Notepad++
This is an example Skill file where you can verify the Notepad++ functionality with the SKILL language addons:
