Trigger Editor Syntax Highlighting

Here's a nifty little program that injects a scintilla-based editor inside the Trigger Editor thus allowing syntax highlighting and some other stuff (screenshot).
Two things you should know about:
-The component refreshes the state every 0.5 seconds by default. This can be changed through the Options dialog (right click on the scintilla component and click on Options in the popup menu). When the custom text area is not active (in a GUI trigger, trigger comment etc.) then it will check every 2 seconds to see if the state changed, this can also be changed through the options dialog.
-The component doesn't always repaint itself so you might want to hit the Refresh button if you notice it looking odd (certain parts becoming gray for instance). This doesn't happen often when you're actively using it (usually after a minimize) so its not much of a problem. It is also possible to refresh it automatically every couple of seconds, this can again be turned on through the options dialog.

Code:
Changelog:

0.4
-fixed the issue where TESH would constantly update triggers thus always making the map unsaved
-Find and Replace added
-you can now load the header "on the fly" by right clicking on the component and selecting Load Header

0.3
-it is now possible to include a .j file by putting it into the includes directory - this way TESH will import any functions that file contains so that they would be highlighted and put on AutoComplete
-you can now syntax check your current trigger (using PJass) by pressing a button
-TESH now automatically applies the changes as you type, but the Save/Discard options can still be enabled from the options
-title of the window TESH tries to find ("Trigger Editor" by default) can be changed through the INI file, this should make it compatible with non-English WE versions

0.2.1
-fixed a bug where null, true and false were impossible to change/remove

0.2
-fixed the max height constrain
-code folding now works fine for constant functions, private methods etc.
-customizable highlighting colors and style
-customizable line numbers font
-option to undo the changes that happen after switching a trigger

0.1
-initial release

Enjoy, hopefully someone finds this useful ;)

It seems really neat (Even better when text color codes would be customizable. ). I haven' t tried but when you implement these WEHelpers and Grimoire you also can add parser what checks JASS first. So these two things work toghether ? I mean your highlighter and parsers so WE would not crash if I forget to end if or something like that ?

Looks great it seems like it could make the JASSing process a lot easier indeed. Now I suck at computers (I like to program but suck at computers, har,har) so how would you install / uninstall it? Like any other software? It would automaticly become part of WE?

> text color codes would be customizable
They are...

> work toghether
Well they are compatible - as far as my program is concerned it doesn't matter whether you use Grimoire, WEHelper or normal editor.

> parsers so WE would not crash
That's what Grimoire/WEHelper does. TESH is essentially just to make Jass prettier.

> how would you install / uninstall it
Extract somewhere, run it, run the world editor, turn on trigger editor and tap that "Hook" button.

Ah
So each trigger your coding, you press hook?

No just once and it will be automaticlly for all triggers.

It would be usefull, if it wasn't so damn easy to copy paste :rolleyes:

thats all you need to know along with typing and jasscraft..

well...that was all i needed to know...until i learned most of the functions from head..lol

Thats not true.

If you type out the function when you first try to learn something, you will learn it faster.

ZOMG :eek: . This is great! Thanx... +rep +rep! (Lol... I know this isn't a very good comment, but I don't have anything else to say :) )
Thanx! :D

It simply doesn't matter what WE you are using - as long as Trigger Editor exists it will work out fine.

I withdraw my comment. Some issues though, properly my own mistakes:

It doesn't check the header? I got a gazillian errors when I parsed some maps with my array system, and KaTTaNas game cache system.

Unfortunately no, it can't see the header of your map.
However you can paste Kattana's system into a .j file and then put that file inside the includes folder. This will make it parse correctly.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
