Step-by-step guide
Languages installation
- Open the Notepad++ editor
- Open the "Language" menu and select "Define your language..." option
- Click on the "Import..." button and select the downloaded xml files, one file at a time
- Close the "User defined language" window and close Notepad++ too
Usage
- When you open a configuration file using Notepad++, the language will be detected automatically and used thanks to the
.cfg
file extension - When you open a log file using Notepad++, the language will not be applied automatically as the
.log
extension is used in several softwares - If you open a log file or a configuration file without a
.cfg
extension, open the "Language" menu and select either CharonCFG or CharonLOG language ( the language has to be selected each time a log file is opened)
The editor might take some time to apply the syntax highlighting if your log file contains lots of lines.
