Add your mod stuff to the standard highlighter, and when you load up your .d file and start typing, everything you thought was important enough to add to the syntax highlighting operates like modern mobile OS stuff, only better - it works as a programmer's editor, so you get options. Start typing Gl, and all the weidu stuff that starts with those letters pops up underneath your typing - keep typing and it refies it, or simply hit the number key listed next to the one you want.
Now if only I could get my brain to move as fast as the tool supports, and I could *really* crank along. Thanks for the reference, guys - I am very impressed. It might not autocode SSL and drop predefined recursive iterative PATCH_IF statements, but as a dialog coding tool it is just absolutely out-of-this-world easy to set up and customize. For incredibly slow typo-prone typers like me, this completely rocks.
devSin, you are right about NI, too - I can confirm drag'n'drop of a BG2 directory and the newest nearinfinity.jar operate crossplatform on a flashdrive. So I can install a test version onto a vanilla game, drop the copy onto the flashdrive, and then if i get 5 minutes at school to just poke about, I can search for whatever I need in terms of troubleshooting, even though i am working with Win7 as a primary system and snow leaopard as a primary work system.
