ash autocomplete definition file for notepad++

RealBurgerKing · Jul 26, 2011

I'm still working on adding all the functions from the master function list, but I've put together a file to help code ash in notepad++. Just download the following file to the "Notepad++\plugins\APIs" directory as ash.xml, open up a .ash file, then press ctrl+spacebar to get a popup with a list of the main ash functions. This file will also provide you with completion hints for function parameters, and save you from having to research as much. I also plan on adding the mafia properties. Enjoy, and check back for updates.

ash.xml 1.0

ash.xml without Mafia Properties without Zlib support

This is fantastic! Thank you!

I didn't even know Notepad++ has this capability.

Settings -> Preferences -> Backup/Auto-Completion

Make sure "Enable auto-completion on each input" is checked, with "Word completion" being selected. Also, check "Function parameters hint on input".

Also, make sure the file you have open is saved with a .ash extension. If it's only a text file, it won't work.

Even with these criteria met, I am getting nothing with ctrl + space.

Did you save the file as "C:\Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\APIs\ash.xml"?
Do you have a file opened that has been saved with a .ash extension when you try to use auto-complete?

Yes & yes. However, my notepad++ folder is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\plugins\APIs. Will that make a difference ?

RealBurgerKing · Jul 27, 2011

It shouldn't as long as you have the ash.xml file saved to the APIs directory. Other than that, I'm at a loss as to your problem. Sorry.

Cool. This could prove useful when I forget what things are called (often)

Also, you changed your avatar...

Aww, it's so nice to be noticed.

maximillian the red · Jul 27, 2011

excellent thanks. though ctrl-space doesn't do anything, i do get the popup box when i start typing. sweet deal.

RealBurgerKing · Aug 14, 2011

Ok script kiddies, I've just uploaded the versions that include Zlib support. Enjoy.

PaladinWhite · Feb 16, 2016

Sorry for the thread necro. RealBurgerKing, if you're still around, thanks for posting these files.

I downloaded "with Mafia properties without Zlib support." Saved it to my plugins/APIs directory, but I don't get an autocomplete. Notepad v6.8.8, with Preferences > Auto-Completion > Enable auto-completion on each input, > Function and word completion, and Function parameters hint on input checked.

Does anyone else use this / what am I doing wrong / is there a newer version somewhere I should use instead?
