<p>Okay, I got to this point, after digging around for the notepad++
installation on Kubuntu Groovy Gorilla Linux (under wine):</p>

includes built in syntax highlight for some

this one.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

may be good if they provide means of editing the

be a nice way of promoting the use of X3D. It is
also not contrary of having a separate project,
because I think you can overwrite an already

with the same name. Not sure of this, though. But
if it can be done, it has all advantages.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Jordi, sounds like a great idea. Thanks for
this effort<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
1. Presumably Notepad++ that you refer to is
available at<br>
<br>
* <a
href="https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads/v7.9.2/"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads/v7.9.2/</a><br>
<br>
I installed, copied files as indicated and tried
to import. Screenshot attached.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately it then said "failed to import"
without indicating why.<br>
<br>
Any ideas on what to try next? I will also try
rebooting in case that clears some post-install
permissions.<br>
<br>
2. Looking ahead, we can autogenerate your files
using X3D Unified Object Model (X3DUOM).<br>
<br>
X3DUOM input plus example conversion stylesheet
and conversion output:<br>
<br>
[2.1] X3D Unified Object Model (X3DUOM)<br>
<a
href="https://www.web3d.org/specifications/X3DUOM.html"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.web3d.org/specifications/X3DUOM.html</a><br>
<br>
[2.2] <a
href="https://www.web3d.org/specifications/X3dUnifiedObjectModel-4.0.xml"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.web3d.org/specifications/X3dUnifiedObjectModel-4.0.xml</a><br>
<a
href="https://sourceforge.net/p/x3d/code/HEAD/tree/www.web3d.org/specifications/X3dUnifiedObjectModel-4.0.xml"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://sourceforge.net/p/x3d/code/HEAD/tree/www.web3d.org/specifications/X3dUnifiedObjectModel-4.0.xml</a><br>
<br>
[2.3] <a
href="https://sourceforge.net/p/x3d/code/HEAD/tree/www.web3d.org/x3d/stylesheets/AllX3dElementsAttributesTextTemplate.xslt"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://sourceforge.net/p/x3d/code/HEAD/tree/www.web3d.org/x3d/stylesheets/AllX3dElementsAttributesTextTemplate.xslt</a><br>
<br>
[2.4] <a
href="https://sourceforge.net/p/x3d/code/HEAD/tree/www.web3d.org/x3d/stylesheets/AllX3dElementsAttributes4.0.txt"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://sourceforge.net/p/x3d/code/HEAD/tree/www.web3d.org/x3d/stylesheets/AllX3dElementsAttributes4.0.txt</a><br>
<a
href="https://sourceforge.net/p/x3d/code/HEAD/tree/www.web3d.org/x3d/stylesheets/AllX3dElementsAttributes4.0.xml"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://sourceforge.net/p/x3d/code/HEAD/tree/www.web3d.org/x3d/stylesheets/AllX3dElementsAttributes4.0.xml</a><br>
<br>
It will be straightforward to adapt this to your
syntax for each conversion. We can add that
automation to the regular X3D specifications
build too. X3D4 draft is now pretty stable, so
this will make it easy to track along with any
small future changes.<br>
<br>
Presumably we can check that into the Notepad++
official build, once tested satisfactorily.
Whatever you think best.<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
3. I'd be interested in next pursuing the same
technique for UltraEdit as well.<br>
<br>
[3.1] User-submitted wordfiles for
UltraEdit/UEStudio<br>
<a
href="https://www.ultraedit.com/downloads/extras/wordfiles.html"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.ultraedit.com/downloads/extras/wordfiles.html</a><br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
4. Of note is that XMLSpy already includes such
support as well (we should send them an X3D4
update).<br>
<br>
[4.1] "XML development environment @XMLSpy by
@Altova is a useful tool for modeling, editing,
debugging and transforming<br>
XML technologies. Latest release adds native
support for #X3D Graphics international
standard."<br>
"Altova reports 5,367,804 users worldwide
who have XMLSpy"<br>

<br>
Am happy to have a teleconference sometime if
that might assist in your efforts.<br>
<br>
Thanks again. Having fun with X3D! 8)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
