I’m Trying to write a plugin for NotePad++ using NppScripting – a platform for writing plugins using javascript (specifically – JScript).
I was wondering if there was a way (probably via ActiveXObject) with which I could listen to a port asynchronously (specifically – I’m trying to write a CSS-X-Fire port to NPP).
I know .NET has that capability via System.Net.Sockets but I couldn’t figure out a way to access it via JScript.
Any help?
I eventually decided to use Adobe AIR to create my solution. It provides an amazing set of APIs, including a set of Socket APIs.
