This page contains information on how to get syntax highlighting and function list support in [http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm Notepad++].

== Syntax Highlighting ==
To add syntax highlighting support copy the '''!UserLang''' node for Cobra from the ''userDefinedLanguage.xml'' file attached below.

Place this XML node in the ''userDefinedLang.xml'' file at 
{{{
%appdata%\Notepad++\userDefinedLang.xml
}}}
If this file does not exist then copy the entire file to the destination directory.

Note that the colors used are more geared towards themes with a darker background (the majority of them). This is so because the way user defined languages are handled at the moment is by explicitly setting the colors and not a class name. These colors might make it a bit hard to comfortably read text with the default theme, which has a background color of white. To change your theme go to '''Settings >> Style Configurator'''.

== !FunctionList support ==
!FunctionList is provided as a plugin for Notepad++ so first be sure to install the plugin. To install download the plugin from http://sourceforge.net/projects/npp-plugins/files/, unzip, then copy the DLL to
{{{
%programfiles%\Notepad++\plugins
or
%programfiles(x86)%\Notepad++\plugins if installed to the x86 Program Files directory on 64-bit Windows.
}}}

Next, copy the '''Language''' node for Cobra found in the ''FunctionListRules.xml'' file attached below.
Place this XML node in the ''FunctionListRules.xml'' file at 
{{{
%appdata%\Notepad++\plugins\config\FunctionListRules.xml
}}}

If the file does not exist then copy the entire file to the destination directory.
