Re: SciTE customisation with Lua Scripts

Hi,

Answering your questions:

*extensions.lua*  -  is a lua script I use for many lua projects. It adds 
functions to the standard libraries which are missing. The necessary 
functions are now in SciTE.lua.

*extman.lua *- was a way of combining different plugin lua scripts, so they 
play nicely together. I have stopped using this and have all my SciTE 
scripting in a single file - attached.

My current windows SciTE installation for reference:

----+/SciTE/
    ---- Sc541.exe
    ---- SciTEGlobal.properties     
            (ext.lua.startup.script=$(SciteDefaultHome)\SciTE.lua)
            (import $(SciteDefaultHome)\mod)
    ---- SciTE.lua                  
            (This is my only script)
    ----+ /mod/                       
            (modifications and additions to the Sc1.exe bundled properties 
files)
        ---- ahk.properties
        ---- kix.properties
        ---- lua.api
        ---- lua.properties
        ---- markdown.properties
        ---- props.api
        ---- props.properties
        ---- SciTELua.api
        ---- SciTELua.properties
        ---- sql.properties

SciTE is not my only editor and the script is dependent upon several 
external tools/files most of which are annotated in the script (e.g. 
Hunspell.exe, paste.exe, shelexec.exe, GrepWin.exe).
        
I have given up on using any third party binary (DLL) addins for SciTE - 
see dead batteries <https://lwn.net/Articles/812122/>.

Kind Regards Gavin Holt
