2: Use UltraEdit to open the downloaded file and change the L20 in the first line to L14, because UltraEdit only supports 20 kinds of syntax.
3: Add the folding function
Because Verilog HDL blocks are generally marked with begin and end as the beginning and end, their function is equivalent to
the braces of the C language . Add the following code in verilog2001.uew:
/Open Fold Strings = "begin""case"
/Close Fold Strings = "end""endcase"
Just place it above /C1"Keywords".
In addition to begin and end can be folded, another pair of case and endcase can also be folded. In the same
way, you can add the folding flags you need.
4: Add the automatic indentation function
Also in wordfile.txt, there is a grammar to control the automatic indentation. The so-called automatic indentation means that when you enter begin and press Enter, a tab is automatically added to the next line; when you enter end, a tab is automatically returned to the next line. Users can add different indentation words to realize automatic indentation. Such as:
/Indent Strings = "begin""case""fork" "if" "else"
/Unindent Strings = "end""endcase""join" "else"
Just place it above /C1"Keywords".
5: Open the file with UltraEdit , the first line = (* Block Comment Off Alt = *) and delete the text, otherwise the content after writing Verilog syntax always@(*) will be commented.
6: You can also add some other custom functions, such as function call function, you can explore it yourself.
7: Place the downloaded file verilog2001.uew under wordfiles in the software directory, restart the software to open it and it will be OK.
