I'm not sure how many people use Notepad++, but I think it's stellar. I write a decent amount of network configs in IOS and JunOS, and I use functions like plugins, tabs, split windows, multiple windows, and especially user-defined languages. As our company moves more into RouterOS I decided it was worth looking into a UDL for it.

Many people create & update UDLs for common languages like IOS, JunOS, Fortinet, etc. So, I found one for RouterOS that someone created a few years ago and made quite a few modifications. See attached if you'd like to give it a shot; I find it helps writing & debugging quite a bit.

To install the file, you need to find your UDL folder.
In NPP, go to Language > User-defined Language > Open User-Define Language folder
(in Windows this is usually C:\Users\%user%\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\userDefineLangs)
Extract the xml file from the rar, into this folder
Restart NPP

Look at the bottom of the Languages list, it should be listed. Now, when you create or edit a file, you can choose RouterOS as the language.
