Hello
I am visually impaired and am trying to use Basic for Android from
Anywhere Software.
Any tips to get the TE to work with it?

Many Thanks.

Note that there is a SciTE-specific mailing list, if you need help on the editor itself,
not on its underlying component (Scintilla).

Scintilla has a LexBasic dedicated to this language, and it is exposed as three
sub-lexers: blitzbasic, purebasic and freebasic.

SciTE has a .properties file for each of them. From a quick look at the source code, they
appear to differ mostly by the folding keywords.

Perhaps you can create your own b4a.properties (or whatever), derived from one of the
above, adapted to the keywords of your specific basic, and referring to one of these
sub-lexers.

Unsure what the situation is here. Basic4android (http://www.basic4ppc.com/index.html) has its own IDE which I would expect most to use in preference to SciTE. The Basic4android environment may use Scintilla but there are a couple of visual indications (coloured lines in the vertical scroll bar and scroll bar splitters) that it is not.
