Hello everyone,
I wrote a simple to use script editor in visual basic a few months back and posted in the general discussions board. Through user feedback I believe I've tweaked it into a very usable editor for KiXtart scripts. Heres a brief list of the features:
1. Color highlighting of Kixtart script keywords (commands, functions, variables, macros, and comments) with the ability to change the highlight color for each group of words.
2. Easily insert all current commands, functions, and macros with proper syntax.
3. Gives you ability to debug script files with a built in output window.
4. Can associate .kix, .kxs, and .scr files to this program with its own icon so you only need to double click a script file to edit it.
5. Supports most text editing features (Cut, Copy, Paste, Undo, Redo, Save, Save As, Print, etc)
6. Ability to switch compatibility between version 3.61 and version 4.22 for shops operating older versions of Kixtart.
7. Keywords can be switched to UPPER or MixedCase automatically keeping you scripts easy to read.
This program is being released as freeware. If you download and use it please let me know how you like it. I'm always looking for ways to improve it. Its available at http://www.gardinertrane.com/kixtarter/. That same page has a feedback form if you find a bug or want to suggest something. Thanks in advance to those that try it out!
Allan
