WeiDU Syntax Highlighters for Notepad++
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Author: Argent77
Version: 3.14

Highlighters included:
- WeiDU_TP2.xml: WeiDU script files (*.tp2,*.tph,*.tpa,*.tpp)
- WeiDU_BAF.xml: Script text files (*.baf)
- WeiDU_D.xml: WeiDU dialog files (*.d)
- WeiDU_TRA.xml: WeiDU translation files (*.tra)
The syntax highlighter files work in Notepad++ 6.3 and higher.

Installing the syntax highlighters:
1. Select Language->Define your language... in your Notepad++ menu.
2. (optional) If you already have an older version installed, you should 
   remove it by selecting the appropriate language from the drop-down menu 
   and click the "Remove" button to avoid duplicate entries.
3. Click the "Import..." button and select the respective XML file.
4. Repeat step 2 and 3 for all syntax highlighters you need.
5. Restart Notepad++ to make the changes visible. You should now see the new 
   entries in the Language menu.

Note:
As more and more keywords have been added to the highlighters, Notepad++ 
may become slower to apply the color schemes. This is especially apparent when 
you switch tabs or change view modes within Notepad++.
That's why I'm offering WeiDU Syntax Highlighters 'Light' for Notepad++ as an 
alternative. It reduces the number of keywords to a bare minimum. You can find 
it somewhere in the download section of the Spellhold Studios website.

If you want to install both the full and the light package of the WeiDU Syntax 
Highlighters, the order of installation determines which version is applied 
automatically when opening a script file in Notepad++. The editor applies the 
first highlighting scheme found in the list of user-defined languages matching 
the file type.

Have fun!
