How do I highlight text from a .js script?
How do I select a specific MARK color from a .js script?
How do I read the number of open documents in .js?

Regarding the highlight/mark, the very first example inside "AkelPad\AkelFiles\Docs\Coder-Eng.txt" mentions that:

Code: Select all

Call("Coder::HighLight", 2, "#RRGGBB", "#RRGGBB", FLAGS, FONTSTYLE, ID, "TEXT", TEXTLENGTH)
  Parameters:
    2
      Mark selected or specified text. Multiline text not supported.
   ...
   Example:
    Call("Coder::HighLight", 2, "#000000", "#9BFF9B", 1, 0, 1)

Regarding the number of open documents, refer to the "AkelDLL.h" as the the source of truth:
https://sourceforge.net/p/akelpad/codes ... /AkelDLL.h

You may use

Code: Select all

AKD_FRAMESTATS             (WM_USER + 267)

specifying one of these flags:

Code: Select all

//AKD_FRAMESTATS flags
#define FWS_COUNTALL      0  //Count of windows. lParam not used.
#define FWS_COUNTMODIFIED 1  //Count of modified windows. lParam not used.
#define FWS_COUNTSAVED    2  //Count of unmodified windows. lParam not used.
#define FWS_CURSEL        3  //Active window zero based index. lParam not used.
#define FWS_COUNTNAMED    4  //Count of named windows. lParam not used.
#define FWS_COUNTFILE     5  //Count of file in different frames. (wchar_t *)lParam is full file name string.

Here is an example:

Code: Select all

SendMessage(hMainWnd, AKD_FRAMESTATS, FWS_COUNTALL, 0);
