Re: Mod File Editor & Syntax Scheme [Freeware ]
Here's the initital version of dommod-mode.el, an Emacs major mode for editing Dominions mod files.
At the moment it does little more than syntax highligting and only of the Dominions 2 keywords at that, but I intend to add some movement and navigation functionality to it as well. Eventually. In time. Some day. Probably.

Re: Mod File Editor & Syntax Scheme [Freeware ]
Just in case anyone wonders why I haven't uploaded anything - had to resolve some legal issues first, but I think can distribute the editor without trouble.
Atm I'm working on an updated syntax scheme for Dom3 mods.

Re: Mod File Editor & Syntax Scheme [Freeware ]
The editor is now available for download !!
It's freeware, like free beer.
It's in english.
It runs under every kind of Windows.
It doesn't need to be installed.
It puts only 1 entry into the registry (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\meybohm\proton\)
I have added syntax highlighting for Dom3 mod (.dm) and for .map files, full range of commands is supported!!

Re: Mod File Editor & Syntax Scheme [Freeware ]
Nice, found a problem with the syntax though, it turns green between " marks. And it should. The problem is that it turns black after a line break even if you havn't closed the quotation marks. Since Line breaks are used if you want a line break ingame that shouldn't happen.

Re: Mod File Editor & Syntax Scheme [Freeware ]
Gnnnnagnnagnag ... hey folks, I haven't written that thing .. there isn't anything I could do about such issues, as it isn't opensource. Not that I know enough about C++ to have any hope to be able to fix them ... [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cold.gif[/img]  
Nice to see that at least someone finds my work on the syntax schemes useful, though
