## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QsciLexerPostScript::QsciLexerPostScript | ( | QObject * | parent = `0` | ) |

Construct a QsciLexerPostScript with parent parent. parent is typically the QsciScintilla instance.

## Member Function Documentation

const char* QsciLexerPostScript::lexer | ( |  | ) | const`[virtual]`

Returns the name of the lexer. Some lexers support a number of languages.

Reimplemented from QsciLexer.

QColor QsciLexerPostScript::defaultColor | ( | int | style | ) | const`[virtual]`

Returns the foreground colour of the text for style number style.

See also:
  defaultPaper()

Reimplemented from QsciLexer.

QColor QsciLexerPostScript::defaultPaper | ( | int | style | ) | const`[virtual]`

Returns the background colour of the text for style number style.

See also:
  defaultColor()

Reimplemented from QsciLexer.

const char* QsciLexerPostScript::keywords | ( | int | set | ) | const`[virtual]`

Returns the set of keywords for the keyword set set recognised by the lexer as a space separated string. Set 5 can be used to provide additional user defined keywords.

Reimplemented from QsciLexer.

QString QsciLexerPostScript::description | ( | int | style | ) | const`[virtual]`

Returns the descriptive name for style number style. If the style is invalid for this language then an empty QString is returned. This is intended to be used in user preference dialogs.

Implements QsciLexer.

void QsciLexerPostScript::refreshProperties | ( |  | ) | `[virtual]`

Causes all properties to be refreshed by emitting the propertyChanged() signal as required.

Reimplemented from QsciLexer.

bool QsciLexerPostScript::tokenize | ( |  | ) | const

Returns true if tokens should be marked.

See also:
  setTokenize()

int QsciLexerPostScript::level | ( |  | ) | const

Returns the PostScript level.

See also:
  setLevel()

bool QsciLexerPostScript::foldCompact | ( |  | ) | const

Returns true if trailing blank lines are included in a fold block.

See also:
  setFoldCompact()

bool QsciLexerPostScript::foldAtElse | ( |  | ) | const

Returns true if else blocks can be folded.

See also:
  setFoldAtElse()

virtual void QsciLexerPostScript::setTokenize | ( | bool | tokenize | ) | `[virtual, slot]`

If tokenize is true then tokens are marked. The default is false.

See also:
  tokenize()

virtual void QsciLexerPostScript::setLevel | ( | int | level | ) | `[virtual, slot]`

The PostScript level is set to level. The default is 3.

See also:
  level()

virtual void QsciLexerPostScript::setFoldCompact | ( | bool | fold | ) | `[virtual, slot]`

If fold is true then trailing blank lines are included in a fold block. The default is true.

See also:
  foldCompact()

virtual void QsciLexerPostScript::setFoldAtElse | ( | bool | fold | ) | `[virtual, slot]`

If fold is true then else blocks can be folded. The default is false.

See also:
  foldAtElse()

bool QsciLexerPostScript::readProperties | ( | QSettings & | qs,
|  | const QString & | prefix |
| ) |  |  | `[protected, virtual]`

The lexer's properties are read from the settings qs. prefix (which has a trailing '/') should be used as a prefix to the key of each setting. true is returned if there is no error.

Reimplemented from QsciLexer.

bool QsciLexerPostScript::writeProperties | ( | QSettings & | qs,
|  | const QString & | prefix |
| ) |  |  | const`[protected, virtual]`

The lexer's properties are written to the settings qs. prefix (which has a trailing '/') should be used as a prefix to the key of each setting. true is returned if there is no error.

Reimplemented from QsciLexer.
