SQF Syntax Highlighter for Sublime Text 2

[JonBons]

I use Sublime for a lot of my projects and I always wanted to be able to add syntax highlighting for sqf files, here is a package you can install in Sublime Text 2.


Let me know if you have any problems or if there are errors in the syntax highlighting.

Download/Information:
https://github.com/JonBons/Sublime-SQF-Language

http://puu.sh/l6sK


Install by running the following command in /Packages
git clone git@<hidden>:JonBons/Sublime-SQF-Language.git "SQF Language"

Or

Add to the Sublime Package Control repository list. If you have Package Control installed, open Sublime Text and hit CTRL+SHIFT+P and select Package Control: Add Repository and input
https://github.com/JonBons/Sublime-SQF-Language/ You will now be able to install/manage via Package Control.

Nice one! Thanks!

Btw, forgot quotes at the end, should be:

git clone git@<hidden>:JonBons/Sublime-SQF-Language.git "SQF Language"

Also when opening a SQF file, it automatically had detected SQF Language, did not need to set it manually.

Thanks, I was unsure if it would automatically select the highlighter due to me testing this all on one machine and I had messed with a bunch of settings. I've updated the readme with the proper command.

I've been using ST2 for a while now and I've just randomly typed "SQF.tmLanguage" in Google and found your GitHub repo.

This really made my morning, thanks! :)

Thanks to Banshee for putting me on it's trail, and JonBons for the SQF plug!

Beginner SQF scripter, long time ST user - many thanks for this!

I have pushed a commit that adds support for the OA 1.62 and OA 1.63 commands that were listed on the Bohemia Wiki page.

Great! Good highlighting for the most fappable editor ))
Doesn't work highlighting for the hex values, like an 0xA0

[JonBons]

I updated the highlighter with some missing arithmetic and comparison operators.

Also note that I got a pull request approved to add this language into the official package control repository list. This means on a fresh install of the package control plugin you can search for SQF and find it without needing to add the repository.

Nice one JonBons, thanks, appreciate the effort

I just pushed a commit that adds the current commands from the arma 3 scripting commands page.

I'm currently testing adding sqf to the goto-documentation plugin so if you want to try it out here is the instructions.

How to use with Package Control:

Ctrl + Shift + P
Type "add repo"
Click "Package Control: Add Repository"
Paste this link:
https://github.com/JonBons/sublime-text-2-goto-documentation-sqf

Afterwards just do Install Package and type "sqf"
Then click the package "sublime-text-2-goto-documentation-sqf"



You then need to add the keybind

Preferences -> Key Bindings - User
Add keybind:
{ "keys": ["f1"], "command": "goto_documentation" }


Now you can simply select the text you want to search the BIKI for and then press F1 and it will open a browser window to the BIKI.
