Hollywood forums

Starting with version 8.5.2 the popular Notepad++ editor for Windows comes with inbuilt Hollywood support. As soon as you open a *.hws file, Hollywood syntax highlighting and formatting will be enabled. It's no longer necessary to install any 3rd party extension. Download the latest version of Notepad++ from here.

Thank you for the news I hace installed in my Notebook and I don't remember this feature.

good since np++ is top of list for most of us

but the old plugin also support compiling and help i dont see that !
maybe need to remain to downloads? or it just too old

Hmm. Has anyone tried? For me version 8.5.3 does not recognise the .hws file (Language still is None). If I manually select Language/H/Hollywood then I get the functions marked as text block and I can fold it. But no syntax highlighting.

I had the same problem (maybe because i had old plugin??)

But a complete remove and clean installation works

Yes, uninstall with removing the custom settings did help.
Thank you

Yeah, I can confirm that updating from an old installation can cause problems. You need to uninstall and reinstall in order to make it work. Not sure what's causing this. Need to check.
