I agree with PhiLho that parsing ahk scripts is not an easy task... I´ve found one more annoyance the outliner stumbles over:
A line like

myVar := lastVar + nextVar

is outlined as label definition
Even worse, because I usually indent those lines with tabs, the outliner shows a square for every tab...

Hi, one more question: how can I define the colors I want to use? I had a look at the ahk.hrc file but cannot find out where to set the colors...

[PhiLho]

myVar := lastVar + nextVar

is outlined as label definition

No space in a label definition (which accepts otherwise almost all Ascii chars! Except comma, percent and backtick (and of course colon!). A label cannot start with these, nor with semi-colon (as it would be a comment!). And after the colon, you cannot have anything except comments.
[EDIT] Testing label syntax:

labels = !"#$&'()*+-./<=>?@{|}~
Loop Parse, labels
{
	c := A_LoopField
	Gosub %c%L
}
c = `;
Gosub L;L
MsgBox %r%
Return

!L:
"L:
#L:
$L:
; Not label %L:
&L:
'L:
(L:
)L:
*L:
+L:
; Not label ,L:
-L:
.L:
/L:
; Not label :L:

; Not label `L:
{L:
|L:
}L:
~L:
	r = %r%%c%
Return

I think I´ll leave the exact recognizing regexp up to jonib but as quick hack, I was able to eliminate the false labels by altering the code in ahk.hrc from

<scheme name="Labels">
			<regexp match="/^(?{ahkOutline}%varname;:[^;]*)/i" region="Label"/>
</scheme>

to

<scheme name="Labels">
			<regexp match="/^(?{ahkOutline}%varname;:[^;=]*)/i" region="Label"/>
</scheme>

(note the equals character)

I don´t know if it will have some unwanted side effects...

You can change coloring style in Eclipse "preferences" "Colorer Library Editor"

If you want your own colors go to the directory where the "catalog.xml" file is and then the "hrd\rgb" directory, that seems to be where the colors are defined.

There are probably many more like this as I wanted to know what I could get working while I learned the Colorer syntax, but if you find more problems and can fix them, less work for me :twisted:

I assumed labels used the same characters as variables. and thanks for the label syntax testing script.

It should at least work better then before.

Hi

I finally had some time to work on this and made a new thread here.
Outlines should work better but functions still need to have "{" on the same line as the function name.

Hi @ all,

anything changes made since jun2006, the date from the last post? An plugin for the eclipse ide is an very good idea...

Hi M'o

Did you look at my thread here, it should have a functional but not complete syntax highlighting for Eclipse using Colorer plug-in.
I have not updated it in a while because I have not done much with AutoHotkey lately and there haven't been much interest, but that can change fast
