Slightly different approach, edit offline using the editor of your choice?

Slightly different, but related, question...

Has anyone modded SciTez to show coloring = to the coloring of a script w/in SL. I love SciTez...but I would like the text-coloring to match with an in-world LSL script. I assume it all has to do with changing the CSS file...but...bleh...I'm lazy and figure I'll ask if anyone else has done it yet.

My version of LSL highlighting is actually colored drastically different...though it's still nice.

Example:

variable type = dark blue, not green.
event = red, not light blue.
state = blue, not red
strings = purple, not green

etc

It's really not even a complaint I have...I LOVE SciTez...was just hoping to get an equivilant text-coloring to LSL in-world scripting.

Another variation: I have found TextPad to be very useful in highlighting the code. They even have a document class with syntax enabling. No compilation but very useful for offline editing such as we are forced to do frequently these days.

I've not set my colouring up to match the inworld editor buit I have altered teh colouring by adding the following to the LSL.properties

colour.code.comment.box=fore:#FF4500
colour.code.comment.line=fore:#FF4500
colour.code.comment.doc=fore:#3F703F
colour.text.comment=fore:#00007F,back:#D0F0D0
colour.other.comment=fore:#007F00
colour.embedded.comment=back:#E0EEFF
colour.embedded.js=back:#F0F0FF
colour.notused=back:#FF0000

colour.number=fore:#007F7F
colour.keyword=fore:#7F0000
colour.string=fore:#7F007F
colour.char=fore:#7F007F
colour.operator=fore:#000000
colour.preproc=fore:#7F7F00
colour.error=fore:#FFFF00,back:#FF0000

I have a Scite settings file which colors things fairly close to LSL. I think the problem is that I could only figure how to define 4 different sets... whereas, LSL has about 8 different colors. For instance, "state default" is different than just "state" and it's a one-off color.

Regardless, I also made a cool black background/neon syntax hilights for coding in dark rooms (the white background burns my eyes after a while). The file has a toggle variable at the top to switch from white to black background.

I would use another editor but its on another computer and not very handy to use while i'm playing.

Anyway problem solved , someone was kind enough to explain how to change the font and size here

/54/53/180007/1.html

Yeah i like my editors to have a black background , with colors that stand out well.
But i can live with this for shorter things. Just couldnt read half the letters before

9's looked like q's lowercase L's looked like ] , was driving me nuts haha
