Suggestion: Upgrade MarkDown lexer? #400
Description
Hi,
I have been trying out many scintilla editors and BowPad is my favourite. I did also discover a custom lexer for Markdown used in NotePad4.
Unfortunately, NotePad4 is an SDI application without spell-checking, so not ideal for authoring notes. NotePad4 does add full line colorization and folding to the MarkDown lexer:
Compared to BowPad with the standard MarkDown lexer:
Folding makes writing outline notes much easier, and if combined with BowPad this becomes a very powerful tool:
- Dark Theme
- Live spell checking
- Snippets
- Custom launch via djot .exe or MultiMarkdown.exe into browser
NotePad4 MarkDown lexer is based on Lexilla version 4 and I am informed this does not work with the current Lexilla library ( zufuliu/notepad4#923 )
Unfortunately, I am not a programmer - would you consider upgrading the MarkDown lexer in BowPad?
Kind Regards Gavin Holt
