Mikrotik script syntax highlight

RouterOS Scripting
1

I often write scripts for many tasks and syntax highlighting is always useful.
Notepadd++ and Nano are good tools for small stuff.

Outside MT CLI, is there a language highlight we can set that is mostly good for highlighting MT script syntax?

Interesting … is there a way to extract the command list from ROS ?

Sublime Text and vscode both have mikrotik syntax packages. Not what you asked for but they are both good editors in different ways.

Vim, too, for the last 3 years.

Rextended posted a script to recursively list everything, here:

and later one that saves to file.
Is this what you were asking for?

Sweet !!

Amazing work… both AMMO and rextended seem more comfortable with syntax than most are with adding a vlan to a pppoe interface…

You may be interested in my “invention” for integrating Notepad++ with RoS via rest Api. viewtopic.php?p=1060260#p1060260
There’s also a bit about syntax highlighting. Currently, Notepad++ has a package for RoS in the UDL (User Defined Languages) repository.

Here is something similar for VS Code http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/visual-studio-code-task-for-running-ros-scripts-remotely/170062/1

I found @truefriendcz’s theme to be the best for my eyes.
I appreciate all the feedback.
