- LxPrDef, An extension for the Lpex editor.
-
- Description
- ===========
-
- Lpex, the editor supplied with the VisualAge C++ compiler package from
- IBM, can be extended through the use of external commands. Lpex
- external commands are implemented through DLLs.
-
- All external command DLLs must be prefixed with the two characters 'Lx'
- and then the command name. Since OS/2 limits DLL names to 8 characters
- plus the DLL extension, this effectively limits the external command name
- to 6 characters.
-
- LxPrDef.dll is therefore the DLL for the external command: PrDef.
-
- PrDef is a parser for *.def files, (module definition files,) that
- provides syntax highlighting in the same manner as the parsers for C
- files, COBOL files, Pascal files, etc.
-
- It should be obvious this is *only* of use to you, if you are using the
- Lpex editor.
-
- To use
- ======
-
- Def.Lxl:
- Place this load macro in the same directory as your other Lpex macros.
-
- LxPrDef.dll:
- Place LxPrDef.dll in the same directory as your other Lpex DLLs.
-
- You now have syntax highlighting for all your Module Definition files.
- Or, at least for any Module Definition files with file extensions of
- *.DEF ;-)
-
