Post From: Sierra Chart 'Language' for Notepad++

Not sure if this is the right place but, if anyone is interested I created a Sierra Chart Language for n++. Note that you will need to save this by naming the language (I suggest calling the it SierraChart to keep everyone on same page), then exit n++ and re-invoke it for all to work correctly.

Download the attached .xml then:
1) goto Language > Define you language > Import
2) Navigate to the file 'Lang_SierraChart.xml' and hit OK
3) Save As... SierraChart
4) Close "Define you language"
5) Close n++ then reopen n++.
6) Select a c++ file with SC code then goto Language > SierraChart

I don't think I have all the best choices for how I've set things up in the n++ user language definitions -
For example, I don't understand how the Delimiter Styles operate and the n++ manual is too out-of-date to explain, but you will be able to This could have been accomplished using the Language Extension Method, but with less flexibility. So I haven't tried that.

P.S. You should also be able to save a file with the extension .sc and I think it will open with the SierraChart language.

P.P.S. 'sc_keywords2.sc' contains all the sc keywords I've collected so far. No point in anyone doing that a 2nd time!
