<p>Is there any chance we can get something like this for vim? I
don't know if Notepad++ works on Linux.</p>
<p>It's hard to teach an old horse new tricks!</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I will look into Notepad++ for Linux a bit.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>

it's Notepad++. I have installed the last release

includes built in syntax highlight for some computer

Providing them separately is good for people who

myself to include this one.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

may be good if they provide means of editing the

contrary of having a separate project, because I
think you can overwrite an
already existing coloring with yours if you include
one with the same name. Not

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>

target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://twitter.com/web3dconsortium/status/1245453673523638272</a><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>
