Latest Notepad++ package for ConTeXt

Latest Notepad++ package for ConTeXt

[Idris Samawi Hamid ادريس سماوي حامد]

Dear gang,

I have uploaded the latest version of the ConTeXt support package for  
Notepad++.

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Image:Npp_ConTeXt-Uni.zip

It has been updated to 5.1.4, the latest stable version.

There are now two versions of Notepad++: ANSI and Unicode. The ANSI  
version is mostly a legacy version,
which supports Win95/98/ME. Unicode Npp supports Unicode path names etc.,  
and is the main release.

Most to all important plugins have been ported to Unicode Npp; this and  
future versions of this package
for ConTeXt will only support Unicode Npp from now on.

Old plugins will not work with Unicode Npp, so be sure to remove them  
before installing the latest Npp.

See

https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5503888

for more details.

NppExec console plugin is essential for this package. It is installed by  
default by the Npp installer.
This support package includes a redundant NppExec plugin -- in case you  
forgot to install it ;-) --
as well as the Explorer plugin and the XBrackets plugin -- not included in  
the main distro.
XBrackets provides bracket autocompletion and is configurable.

Directory structure has changed a bit:

Npp now stores some config settings in

Application Data\Notepad++\plugins\config

that used to be stored in eg

Program Files\Notepad++\plugins\Config

the startstop module has been moved to texmf-project. Most of its features  
are or soon will be made
obsolete in mkiv.

The run commands are now all linked to scripts. Shortcuts are in the  
Macros menu, and you by F6 you can
open the scripts console and editor. This way it's easier to edit the  
commands as well as to keep up with
changes in the way ConTeXt does things etc.

All reference to aleph is gone, luatex is its successor.

"Update ConTeXt" is almost certainly obsolete; I never use it anyway. Feel  
free to send me an updated
script for inclusion.

I have never used XeTeX, the XeTeX related scripts may need adjustment.

Please send me any comments, suggestions, or improvements!

Best wishes
Idris
