This project provides a very simple user-defined language file for Notepad++ that does syntax highlighting for an outliner mode. It is designed to be used with the Twilight theme, but with a little tweaking you can use it with whatever you want.
Add the Outliner definition like this:
- Download the Ouliner language definition file from GitHub to your computer.
- Click Start > Run, and type (or paste in)
%APPDATA%\Notepad++, then click OK. This will open the settings directory for Notepad++. - If it does not already exist, copy the downloaded
userDefineLang.xmlfile into the Notepad++ settings directory. Skip to step 7. - If it does exist, open the active
userDefineLang.xmlwith a text editor. - Copy the contents of the Markdown definition file between the
<UserLang...></UserLang>tags into the activeuserDefineLang.xml, at the end right before</NotepadPlus>. - Save
userDefineLang.xml. - Restart Notepad++.
You can take a look at sample files in english, catalan or spanish. Notepad++ will apply this outliner mode for '.notes' file extension.
