NSIS syntax needs update

[KohChia]

NSIS 3.0 has been released recently, some new command added:

Pre-processor commands:

• !getdllversion

Some new commands and options:

• VIFileVersion
• Unicode true|false
• ManifestSupportedOS none|all|WinVista|Win7|Win8|Win8.1|Win10

I only found these, maybe more.

If you go through all of them and list them I could add them. Alternatively, you could make a PR.

I found almost all the them through changelog, NSIS manual & source code.

• Pre-processor instructions with new switches added:
  1. !addplugindir Now supports /x86-ansi|/x86-unicode switches.
  2. !include Now supports /NONFATAL & /CHARSET=ACP|OEM|CP#|UTF8|UTF16LE|UTF16BE switches. The switch "/NONFATAL" has been included already, for some other instructions also supports. Where "#" represents a decimal number, e.g.: CP936.
  3. !if Now supports /fileexists switch.
  4. !appendfile Now supports /RawNL & /CHARSET=ACP|OEM|CP#|UTF8[SIG]|UTF16<LE|BE>[BOM] switches. By viewing NSIS 3.0 source code, I found it supports these words after "/CHARSET": ACP, OEM, CP#, UTF8, UTF8SIG, UTF8BOM, UTF16LE, UTF16LEBOM, UTF16BE, UTF16BEBOM. The meaning of "CP#" is the same as above.

All instructions & switches are case insensitive in NSIS script all along.

• Pre-processor instructions added:
  1. !finalize
  2. !getdllversion
  3. !makensis
  4. !macroundef
• predefined macro added:
  1. ${NSIS_PACKEDVERSION} ${NSIS_CHAR_SIZE} ${NSIS_PTR_SIZE} ...and more Notepad2-mod already supports any macro name (a word within "${" & "}") being high-lighted.
  2. ${U+1}...${U+10FFFF} This syntax represents an Unicode (UCS-4) character, should be highlighted. Notepad2-mod doesn't support.
• Installer properties instructions added:
  1. VIFileVersion
  2. Unicode true|false
  3. ManifestSupportedOS none|all|WinVista|Win7|Win8|Win8.1|Win10
  4. ReserveFile Now supports /plugin switch.
• Run-time instructions with new switches added:
  1. CreateShortcut Now supports /NoWorkingDir switch.

Try this build.

For ${U+1}...${U+10FFFF} check if Scite works; if not report the issue to Scintilla.

• !addplugindir [/x86-ansi | /x86-unicode] "x86-ansi" & "x86-unicode" are not highlighted.
• !if [!] /FileExists "X:\path\file.ext" "fileexists" is not highlighted.
• !appendfile [/CHARSET=ACP|OEM|CP#|UTF8[SIG]|UTF16<LE|BE>[BOM]] [/RawNL] file text "RawNL" is not highlighted.
• Unicode true|false "Unicode" is not highlighted.
• CreateShortcut [/NoWorkingDir] link.lnk target.ext [args [icon [index [show [hotkey [desc]]]]]] "NoWorkingDir" is not highlighted.
• ${U+1} ... ${U+10FFFF} Highlighted in quotation marks, for example: `${U+1}`, '${U+10FF}', "${U+10FFFF}". Not highlighted without any quotation marks.

Please paste a test script I can use for testing.

The script is just for testing, it may not be compiled successfully.
