Hello!
At the recent ConTeXt meeting Hans helped me update my ConTeXt installation and explained about a new way of getting ConTeXt to work with SciTe, it now uses external lexers and even spell-checking is now possible for some languages.
The SciTe tips and tricks page will have to wait, but I made a new wiki page for the installation instructions. This one isn't linked anywhere yet and the page title should probably be changed before that, but I leave that to wiki admins. My old "Simple Windows installation page" should probably be unlinked or even deleted after this new and better one has found its proper spot.
For now, the new Windows+SciTe page is at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Windows:_ConTeXt_Suite_with_editor_%28SciTe%29
I checked the instructions by installing the combo on a "blank" new Win64-laptop (of the cheap and sleazy type, this keyboard drives me nuts!) and it works. It is not exactly "out-of-the-box", but nothing a seasoned Windows user or a half-good admin couldn't manage. I assume small .bat scripts could be written to automatize it even further, but I'm no programmer, it is faster for me to do a bit of manual work instead.
there is now also a scite-for-osx but someone needs to compile the external lexer lua library as it's only available for windows and linux Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
