Hey Mario, please have a look into this ticket: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-7
TLDR; It is About to easily implement a lot of languages with one or Maybe less couple of files w/o writing Java for Syntax Highlighting, Braces Matching and some simple stuff. This was the Intention of NBS (NetBeans Scripting aka Schliemann). What I think, Schliemann is an own implementing of NetBeans and it was/is very great, the biggest Problem, there is no list of supported languages, no one has ever created NBS languages EXCEPT from cucumber/Gherkin. This is the only language implementation that I know that someone created as NBS for NetBeans. Yes it is still working and you can still use it, but it is a big Buggy as others already mentioned it. So this is where the ticket started. A lot of other Editors has similar implementation like VS Code (They uses textMate language files), UltraEdit, NotePad++ and some others. Please see the ticket for more Details, I collected everything inside. In short, NBS is nice but only one had created cucumber/Gherkin for NetBeans with NBS. I would like to have a more common use of what other IDEs or Editors use to reuse those languages. I’m in contact with the textmate support to understand whether there is a list of supported languages or not. Cheers Chris Von: Sven Reimers Gesendet: Montag, 3.

Hi all, If we gather enough interest and support in/from the community - I would suggest looking into the Schliemann approach and figure out if we can build a new, better version... Any volunteers interested in investigating? -Sven Am Mo., 3. Dez. 2018, 20:41 hat Enrico Scantamburlo <[email protected]> geschrieben: > The module is deprecated.
