SaberMaster's EditPlus Cog Files

version 0.7

The .zip should include: First, extract the four files to your EditPlus directory. Editplus will recognize the cliptext file (*.ctl), but the others need to be installed.

To do this, first run EditPlus. In the Tools menu, select the Preferences dialogue box. Select Settings & syntax under the File category. Add a new file type called Cog. Then give the extension for the file type (with no ".") and the directory of the autocompletion (*.acp) and syntax (*.stx) files.

Now to add the Cog template. While in the Preferences dialogue box, select Templates. Type in a name for the template and then give EditPlus its directory.

Now you're done with the basic configuration...

Other Options

Syntax Highlighting

Editplus uses the syntax file to highlight recognized words in a cogscript. The default colors are acceptable, but you will probably want to change them. Back in the Settings & syntax options, select the Cog file type and click the Syntax colors tab. There you can change the colors of each of the categories of keywords in the syntax file.

Tab & Indent Settings

EditPlus will automatically indent your code when you enter recognized characters. To set these characters, click the Tab/Indent button under Cog's Settings & syntax tab. This table shows the recommended settings:

FunctionCharacter
Auto indent open{
Auto indent close}
End of statement;

You probably don't want to enter a character for the End of statement setting. If you do, EditPlus will indent after every line that does not end in that character. This method of indenting is non-standard and fairly worthless.

Make sure that you have the Enable auto indent option checked for these settings to work.

What's New

Version 0.7
Version 0.7 includes updated verb parameter information for the autocompletion and cliptext files that was discovered during the research for version 0.5.0 of the DataMaster.
Version 0.6
Version 0.6 was released after the correct use of JK's heap verbs was discovered. The cliptext and autocompletion files have been updated with the correct parameter information.

After All

These EditPlus files were created with the help of the research done for the Jedi Knight DataMaster. All of the parameter and verb information used comes directly from this reference.

After you've tried these files out, I would appreciate some feedback on them. If you find something that should be changed, be sure to let me know.

Hope you enjoy using these files,

- SaberMaster.
