Lexilla is a library of lexers that can be used with Scintilla or independently.

https://www.scintilla.org/Lexilla.html

Lexilla 5.4.7 is now available from the scintilla.org web site.

This is a normal release containing features and fixes.

A new lexer was added for escape sequences "escseq".

There were improvements for Errorlist, Makefile, Perl, and Progress.

A signed version of Lexilla.DLL is included in the SciTE Windows executable download that can be used by downstream projects. It is signed "Open Source Developer, Neil Hodgson".

A C++17 compiler is required to build Lexilla. Microsoft Visual C++ 2022, GCC 9.0, Clang 9.0, Xcode 14 Clang or newer will work. Some slightly older compilers may still work.

A list of changes is available on the history page.

Lexilla uses Git for source code control. The repository can be cloned with
git clone https://github.com/ScintillaOrg/lexilla

Thanks to the contributors of code and documentation and to the testers.

Neil
