Today I'm looking into compiling PHP files directly from PSPad, because it should be faster than switching to the web browser every time.
A) The "Compiler Example" for PHP in your Help file isn't up-to-date. This is working for me: Compiler: drive:\path\php.exe Parameters: "%File%" [X] Capture Program Output Window [X] Compile on background LOG parser: *on line %L So, quotation marks added and the "b" removed. Here a Screenshot (viz https://snipboard.io/3r4QsG.jpg ) B) In your "Highlighter Settings" under "Compiler" I don't understand the difference between "Capture Program Output Window" and "Compile on background", where the second one isn't explained in the Help file - maybe you can add it. But I found, that with "Compile on background" enabled PSPad shows a little feedback in the console: "Process completed, Exit Code 0. Execution time: 00:00.072". This is great, because with "Compile on background" disabled the console remains totally blank. So I added it also to my compiler example above. C) In your "Highlighter Settings" under "Log Parser" one can see six variables listed. In your Help file under "Compiler Settings" %S and %E aren't explained. Maybe you can add those, and explain what "%E/end parsing" is good for - maybe with an example. More to come.
