anmXNpp: a Plugin for the Open Source (free) Notepad++ (Npp) Text  Editor (ANSI + UNICODE version)

Program Description:                                                                                                                                                                                                          Back

This program transforsm Npp (and other editors supporting plugins) in a powerfull expression evaluator, simple to use and with many functions for numbers and matrices.
It uses a dll as plugin interface with Notepad++, an extended version of aStEval.exe program (see aSpEval_Page) called anmXNpp.dll incorporating my 'famous' aNuMet.dll  (see aNuMet_Page) all in one package. 

It is written in PureBasic (www.purebasic.com) and it doesn't write anything outside the installation folder (no system changes).

The zip file is provided with a complete sample script file with all the keywords and functions supported.

For Notepad++ (notepad++) fans (like me) I've also included:
- the syntax highlighter definition file "userDefineLang.xlm" to be copied (merged if already existing) in the Application Data folder (es. C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Notepad++) to be used with aNuMet Scripting files.

For previous versions fromv0010 to v0021 only:
--------------------------------------------------------------
If you want to develop a more sofisticate plugin for Npp or any other editor using the aNuMet.dll library, double click on anmEval.exe program to see an extensive help screen.
anmEval.exe program can remain running (rr) preserving results of previous calculations and accepting input parameters from subsequent runs.

PLUGIN INSTALLATION:
------------------------
- Just explode the file in the notepad++ installation folder (es. c:\program files\notepad++), preserving the subfolder names

USE:
- Read the Readme.txt file for some info
- Launch Notepad++ and open the file nppfolder\plugins\anmXNpp\Full_SyntSamp.anm. Look at the Plugins > Math Evaluator menu'. Try it.

- symbolic differentiation for f(x) ^ g(x) functions
- FFT calculation
- 4th Order Runge Kutta Integration method

UNICODE VERSION		14-Sep-2009Revision: 0.0.4.7
- Added menu item: Build Matrix to facilitate the entry of a vector/matrix string
- Modified Eval Line To Window (Ctrl + 2) menu item to claculate result without Expr = prefix.
  es. Expr = 1 + 2 * 3 (Ctrl+2) = 7.0000 can be also written 1 + 2 * 3 [=], where = is optional 		InputFile_ToolTip.TIF
