Heaven/TQA Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 aehm... I have updated my Notepad++ and continued work some work on Beyond Evil studing my sprite code but I can not get my label list on the right side. I can not remember if that was done by a plugin or by configuring the stuff. I can remember that I pressed a button and a new window on the right side of the source code was opened with all labels (ok... only the ones with had a ':' like "init:" f.e.)... when I was clicking on the list item the cursor automaticly jumped to the code section... can someone help me?

Sounds like the "functions" plugin. I know it breaks lots of times when updating. I love Notepad++ and use it all the time. I just wish there was a 6502 highlighting setting for it.

Stephen Anderson Thanks Stephen, I am playing around with the fx plugin but it does not work with Notepad++ v5.x and so I went back to v4.x but still not work. I know on one of my old PCs I had an older version of Notepad just because of this feature... hmmm Maybe I have to go back even more version numbers... when trying to configure the fx plugin I have no clue how I can do this... I know the old version I have not configured anything... re: syntax highlighting just add the 6502 commands plus f.e. the MADS special ones in the style settings for assembler? it is quickly done as the 6502 does not have too many commands...

johnnystarr Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Sounds like the "functions" plugin. I know it breaks lots of times when updating. I love Notepad++ and use it all the time. I just wish there was a 6502 highlighting setting for it. Stephen Anderson I've created my own notepad++ 6502 highlighting XML file if you want one. You can make one yourself by just entering all the instructions and directives. Its pretty helpful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixelmischief Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Atari programming language XML's for Notepad++ might be enough to actually knock me over the fence toward starting to code on the platform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnystarr Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) So, here is a copy of my UDL file for Notepad++ 6502-VCS.xml I've currently added psuedo-ops for DASM, but you can go in and add any assembler specific data you want. I should note that the TIA and RIOT registers are taken from "vcs.h" and "macro.h". So, you may need to tweak them as well. Here's a peak at what my current theme looks like. Its not 100% perfect, but it should give you an idea of how this works: Edited August 16, 2013 by johnnystarr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eshu Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Sorry for the necro-bump, but I don't suppose anyone had the 6502-VCS.xml file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 OK, another bump and request. I'm configuring to use MADS with Notepad++ - I want to open the assembly output in another tab. The method I'm working on isn't the prettiest but I can't think of any other way. I tried directing MADS -l output to CON: but it didn't work, and in any case the console output for Notepad++ isn't really suited for long outputs we'd get from bigger projects. ie I've got a command sequence setup that goes to plugin npp_exec: npp_save cd "$(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)" D:\Emulators\Atari 800\PC Tools\MADS 2.06\mads "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)" -l:$(NAME_PART).lst notepad++ "$(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)\$(NAME_PART).lst" This works (I had N++ set to operate in single instance mode) but the problem is if I don't close the tab with the output listing the next one that's generated isn't opened. Ideally it would just close off the listing if a tab was already opened before calling MADS. Whether that can be done I don't known. Seems documentation for N++ and plugins is all over the place and much of what I've found is just by searches and luck. Alternatively, I might just go back to EDIT+ which is what I was using previously. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fujidude Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I'm pretty handy with scripting & I might be able to help improve, but you have to help me understand the MADS part of this. I haven't used MADS so part of what you're trying to communicate is Greek to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twh/f2 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 VS Code is a pretty amazing piece of software. Good hint Tebe!!! greetings, twh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted March 9, 2017 Author Share Posted March 9, 2017 Advantage vs code vs eclipse wudsn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twh/f2 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 That's a very good question. I guess Mr. Dell himself could comment on this. I think that eclipse+wudsn currently doesn't compare to VSCode (function wise) at all. But Eclipse is just the framework for WUDSN. I guess WUDSN could also rely on another framework like VSCode. As far as I know VS Code is completely based on JS/NodeJS. So bringing WUDSN functionaltiy to VSCode would mean a reprogramming from scratch. Eclipse has much Java-specific IDE overhead, which a MADS programmer wouldn't need. It would be nice to have a slim & easy-to-setup editor for MADS and/or CC65 incl. debugging with Alitrra.. . --- ok dreaming Until then I can live with WUDSN which is a great option of course. \twh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stephen Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 The WUDSN plugin also has great features such as image editing (in Atari specific formats of course). It's not just a code editor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenjennings Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) I use eclipse/wudsn/atasm on linux. Works great. When I'm editing on the PC I use Notepad++. I put together a few syntax hilighting configurations. Atari BASIC, BASIC XL, and atasm. I exported the configa and put them on github here: https://github.com/kenjennings/NotepadPlusPlus-Atari-Syntax-Highlighting The atasm syntax hilighting is fairly complete. Not too sure about the BASICs. I don't use them very often. Edited March 10, 2017 by kenjennings 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
