   Hi simon. I just wanted to let you know that there are a couple problems with the D scheme in 2.0.7.610.

   1) The .d extension isn't associated with the D scheme, so D files come up as plain text by default.

   2) The keyword list is incorrect. Here's an updated version from the language spec:

   abstract alias align asm assert auto body bool break byte case cast catch cdouble cent cfloat char class const continue creal dchar debug default delegate delete deprecated do double else enum export extern false final finally float for foreach foreach_reverse function goto idouble if ifloat import in inout int interface invariant ireal is lazy long mixin module new null out override package pragma private protected public real return scope short static struct super switch synchronized template this throw true try typedef typeid typeof ubyte ucent uint ulong union unittest ushort version void volatile wchar while with

   3) The line/stream/box comment menu items don't work. Line comments should start with //. Stream comments should be within /* ... */. What are box comments?

   4) /+ ... +/ style nested comments are not supported at all.

   Oops, I guess I forgot to write the second part of my post. :/ OK, well I'll do that now. I'd like to take PN with me on my USB thumb drive, so I added a config.xml file as suggested in the "pn ini settings" thread. It did work, but not completely. I checked pn.exe with FileMon and RegMon, and it still made some registry and file accesses.

   It read the recent find list from HKCU\Software\Echo Software\PN2\AutoComplete\FindToolbar. It also read the files in %APPDATA%\Echo Software\Programmer's Notepad. The funny thing is it did this *after* it read the local config file. It did read/write settings to the correct location, at least.

   BTW, thanks all the time and energy you put into PN! It's the best lightweight editor on Windows, IMO. That's why I'm here complaining about little things like this. :)

   Thanks, I'll try and look at all this stuff this week. Could you please paste in a copy of your config.xml file so that I can see what's in there? The portable stuff should work with recent builds (I know the registry stuff for autocomplete still needs fixing).

   OK, here's my config.xml: <config><userSettings path="settings/" /><storeType value="Ini" /></config>

   Again, settings/UserSettings.ini is created and used. I just can't figure out why PN still reads files out of %APPDATA%.

   Thanks, I've integrated the changes for D you suggest.

   I've just loaded PN while running filemon and I don't see it querying the Echo Software\PN2 application data folder. There are a few queries to Application Data\desktop.ini but this is part of Windows not the PN code. What build are you using? I'm testing with a 2.0.7 build.

   Hmm, I just tested it with 2.0.7.640 and it still queries the APPDATA folder. Then again, it doesn't actually do anything to the files, so I guess I'm just being anal. :)

   Here's the relevant FileMon entries:
