Colors in ESL script



For better orientation in ESL script, editor uses different coloring scheme for each type of the individual text tokens. Default coloring parameters can be modified using ESL editor settings dialog.



ESL Editor within String detects the references to dictionary. If some reference to a dictionary (key), which has not defined yet, is identified, it will be colored as Error (see the dialog above).


Example:
The key D2_ActAlarm exists in the dictionary, but D2_ActAlarmAAAAA does not exist.
