Hello,
When you are programming you need a good editor that highligh the code and allow folding (colapse coherent parts of code, for instance a function).
Notepad++ with the attached "udl-Notepad++PVD_Script.xml" you can changed your code vision of
Without:

With Notepad++ and 'udl-Notepad++PVD_Script.xml':



You must:
1)Download the minimalist portable NotePad++ from https://notepad-plus-plus.org/repository/7.x/7.5.6/npp.7.5.6.bin.minimalist.7z

2)In Notepad++ import the attached here udl file (udl-Notepad++PVD_Script.xml) as described in: http://docs.notepad-plus-plus.org/index.php/User_Defined_Language_Files#How_to_install_user_defined_language_files.

When you open the *.psf PDV script file, Notepad++ do the rest.

Note: You can use the comentaries //BlockOpen  and //BlockClose for folding functions, comentaries, etc.

I already use it for about six to seven years, and it is my best (at least me) editor for PVD scripts. Even "udl-Notepad ++ PVD_Script.xml" is a good deal for him, and thanks for this variation of editing PVD scripts.

The PVD script language is very similar to the Free Pascal (often I use the internet documentation of this language to solve questions of PVD).
So I had used PSPad for editing but, with the udl file, NotePad is very much better.

Note: Please, if you can pin the TOPIC in the forum, I think it would be good for all people.
