UDL file for Notepad++

[Arndt Schaefer]

Hi,

I'd like to get JQL added as a UDL in Notepad++ to have syntax highlighting.

(yes, I know that might sound odd but I am used to that, so don't blame me :-))

Unfortunately it looks like Notepad++ doesn't have that language xml in their current list.

Is there anyone that has such an xml of knows where to get it?

Hi, @Arndt Schaefer 

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

Made (with gpt help) such UDL, which seems to work. Tested it in my Notepad++.
Used Atlassian JQL cheat sheet, to teach gpt, what are correct functins/operators/etc...
Feel free to modify it.
