I'm sorry, I think my original notes were not as newbie-friendly as I
thought ;)

(1)  put extman.lua in the same directory as SciTE.exe.

(2) The next step is to make SciTE use extman.lua as its startup Lua
script.
Best way to do this is to go to Options|Open User Options, which will
probably be blank, and put in this line:

ext.lua.startup.script=$(SciteDefaultHome)/extman.lua

(3) extman by default will load _any_  Lua file in the scite_lua
directory.
Create this directory in the same folder as SciTE.exe, and put the
extman example scripts in it (they are extman.zip if you're looking
at the SciteExtMan page in the wiki).

When SciTE is restarted, you should have some interesting extra
commands on your Tools menu ;)

Hope that helps. If I recall, the outline mode was a bit of a hack,
and I'm going to see if it still works with the latest SciTE.

hey everybody,

I've only recently started playing with scite, I don't
know lua at all, and I'm not a programmer.  Still, I
would love to use the emacs-style outline mode.  First
roadblock: where is, how do I define, the scite_lua
directory?  Or "install" extman?  I just can't find
this in the docs.  little help? :-)

I'm on linux using scite version 1.71

I've got more stupid questions, but first things first.

thanks.
