SASS Syntax Highlighting XML for Notepad++ (Obsidian theme)

There are a lot of much more capable editors that support SCSS natively around, but if you really stuck using Notepad++, here's a custom syntax highlighting config XML file for you.

...my suggestion, anyway, is to check out SublimeText and Atom ;)

Please note that colors are based on the "Obsidian" theme bundled with Notepad++.

Usage

To enable SCSS syntax highlighting:

In Notepad++, open the Language and menu and select User Defined Dialog...
Click on the import button and select the XML file located in our ZIP file
After restarting Notepad++ your files with the .scss extension should now be highlighted

To enable autocomplete:

go to your Notepad++ folder then to /plugins/APIs/
duplicate the css.xml and rename this file to Obsidian_SCSS.xml
