Neil Hodgson, the creator of SciTE, and Neil Hodgson, a motorcycle racer — are they the same person or not? --D V S 06:14, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

No. Neil Hodgson of Scintilla fame lives in Australia. [ælfəks] 05:39, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Should the supported formats be listed? - Tothaa 14:17, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

By "supported formats" I assume you mean "languages for which SciTE has predefined syntax recognition". I would say no -- users that are interested in specific languages should go to the software's home page to check on such details. VanishingUser 01:16, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notable

It is a component that is used by many other free text editors for Windows, including Notepad++ and numerous others. Best of breed, if you count out GVIM. --Amir E. Aharoni 08:05, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Actually, Scintilla is the component used in those and many other editors, and also in Scite. Scite started as a demonstration of that very component. Never-the-less, it is a notable editor, with 653,000 hits on google. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.120.167.76 (talk) 00:26, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] some links

hi, there are a few external links i'd suggest for inclusion:

http://caladbolg.net/scite.php : extensions to allow writing lexers in lua and other nice things

http://users.hfx.eastlink.ca/~gisdev/scite.html Bruce Dodson's Windows distribution with some enhancements (also at http://gisdeveloper.tripod.com/scite.html)

http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/scite/ SciTE4AutoIt3 (actually there are many scite customizations for specific languages around, dunno if it's interesting to list them here) bye —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.50.67.217 (talk) 18:00, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
