I use Notepad++ to create and edit QuickBMS scripts (makes indentation easier). However today I looked into making custom syntax colouring and such for it, and it wasn't too hard. Basically I just made it colour various commands and data types, as well as comments and strings. It makes script a bit more readable and less bland to look at. It also allows you to collapse if statements and loops.

I've attached an XML file with the language definition. To use it, in Notepad++ go to Language -> Define your language, then click Import and select the XML file. It should automatically detect .bms files to be displayed using that definition.

Hopefully this is helpful for some people, I definitely think it makes scripts easier to read

There is also one on my website:
http://aluigi.org/papers/bms/userDefineLang.xml

I have only to add few recent algorithms and a couple of commands but it should be quite complete.
Maybe take a look at it too.

I have just updated it by adding NameCRC and Codepage plus all the remaining compression and encryption algorithm that have been introduced in the recent versions.

Ah, didn't know that existed. That one's much better than mine

Guess I'll be using that now, thanks!

Sorry for the necropost but I can't finded this subject on another place so... there's some problem with the comment tags "/**/", you can see what I'm talking about in this script: http://aluigi.altervista.org/bms/nxpk.bms

Here I see no problems with nxpk.bms. The only "weird" thing is that both "if" and "endif" are red but the comment is perfectly handled.

Exactly, I was talking about the Np++ User-defined Language, not the script itself.
