Hi,

Just a quick update on mEdit. I just put out 0.2.1 beta which adds compatibility for the newly released mIRC 7.1. No other issues were addressed, this update is simply so that you can use medit.dll in the new version of mIRC.

Get it here: http://kthx.net/medit/

The screenshot looks fine to me. You can't put ini sections in an mrc file (and expect it to be valid syntax). Also "a lot of RAM" is a subjective unqualified statement. Any syntax highlighter is going to use "more" RAM than the existing editor. I just tested a few script files with ~1500 lines and it raised RAM by ~3mb-- that's a hardly a cause for concern. If anything, you should be worried about CPU, not RAM.

But like I said, this is not a thread for reporting issues. No existing issues were fixed, only compatibility for 7.1 was added.

There are no plans to support pre-6.31 versions, sorry.

It's within a disabled group... and it only flags items under topics that begin w/ @.

It's also for some reason influencing mIRC's stability... or it in combination with something else. I'm not sure what's the problem. I'll investigate it sometime.

actually you can, sysreset has all of their addons setup like that. Example to follow. It will run as a valid script and you can use $readini on it, never tried to writeini or anything else though.

Code:
/*
[Addon]
Script=Script name
Version=beta
Author=pball
Desc=
For=Mirc
Date=today

[script]
*/
;Script goes here

mIRC can no longer $readini on these files safely in 7.x. Well, reading might be safe, writing would wipe the whole file, which is not a good idea.

In any case, that example is very different, since that ini data is embedded inside a comment. My point was you should not expect the syntax highlighter to understand ini data as mIRC syntax.

Why doesn't your DLL also flag the [start] [end] and [@topic] lines as errors too? These are just as likely to be syntax errors as what is flagged...

Sorry for opening this old post, but is there any new versions of mEdit or is the project dead? If so, are there other programs like this?

Could try mSLDev. Posted it here a while back.

https://forums.mirc.com/ubbthreads.php/topics/241147/mSLDev_-_The_Ultimate_In_Scrip#Post241147

Has not been updated since Dec 2014 ( latest_build.zip ) so anything new like "var -n" and other things will generate warnings/errors that can be ignored.

You can find the latest_build.zip here, http://www.msldev.com/download/win/
