Nice work so far. I like how it's shaping up. Testing the 32bit version.

Bugs

• Tabs are converted to spaces (but you probably know that one already ).
• Only the first and last lines of multiple-line C-style comments are highlighted correctly.
• function ClassName::functionName() registers the function as ClassName in the code completion popup.
• There's a leftover of the code completion: Type "do" and it brings up a do/while loop, which doesn't exist in RPGCode.
• e+- syntax breaks coloring for numbers (eg., 1e+6). Most people don't know this feature exists though.
• elseif, struct, null, true, false, default, inline, include (and some other less important ones) aren't highlighted (should be keywords).

That's all I've found so far. Keep up the good work.

He means that if you hit tab on the keyboard, instead of tabing in, it places like 5-6 spaces instead of a tab. (don't know the number, didn't try it XD)

Tabs vs spaces is a long running debate in the programming world, as silly as that seems. If I press tab, I want a tab. Very deliberately don't want spaces. Seems trivial, but still.

Sorry, should have worded it better. The problem isn't really that tabs are converted to spaces, but how it behaves on backspace: If I hit backspace, it only goes back one actual space. To delete a line, I have to hit backspace four times per tab.

When I use Eclipse for writing Python code, for example, it also converts tabs to spaces (since space indents are standard in Python), but it still treats them in the editor as if they were normal tabs, eg. one backspace per block of 4 spaces. Most other editors do this as well.

I don't have a preference for tabs vs spaces in the file as long as they behave the same way in the editor. I know it seems like a small, nit-picky gripe, but all those spaces add up.


on error, goto, resume next, returnmethod -- that should be all of them. (Less important because returnmethod was superseded by return, and the error handling keywords were superseded by functions, although they are still listed in the help files.)
