[NTG-context] Check brackets and parentheses

2012-07-06 Thread Gilbert Houtekamer 
Hi,

I sometimes find myself looking for misplaced and missing brackets for a long 
time, as context may given errors about a completely different location.

For example this one took me a while
   \goto{\url[localhost20381}[url(localhost20381)]
 
(missing ] after this localhost20381).

Is there a SciTE or Notepad++ or command line script that anyone wrote to help 
with this?  It can be more or less sophisticated, but I found that missing / 
mismatched { [ ] } give the most confusing errors.  

Thanks,

Best regards/vriendelijke groeten
Gilbert

A lot of (most?) programming editors do paren checking, at least in
that they show which paren matches the one the cursor is on.
Maybe you can simply switch it on/off per language in your editor?
(It’s been a while since I tried SciTE...)

mtxrun --autogenerate --script check page-bck.mkiv

(I have it under F12 in scite)

I wrote the attached Python script a while ago to catch cases like
this, where an opening bracket accidentally ‘contains’ the whole rest
of the file. The script just keeps a running count of the nesting
level, and gives the number of the last line where the nesting level
was zero. Usually the offending bracket is at or very close to that
line. It does that same for \start... and \stop..., in a very stupid 
way (i.e. just counts them without identifying them, wouldn't
catch e.g. \startonething \stopsomeotherthing).

Hope it's helpful,

Shouldn't this line be
 f = open(filename, 'r')
otherwise the 'filename' parameter will not be used

 braces = 0
 i = 1
 last_zero = -1
 for line in f.readlines():

Oops, you're quite correct. Of course it makes no difference at
present, but one day some unlucky person will try to use the function
elsewhere. The script was written in a hurry, as you may guess.
