In order to achieve syntax highlighting, I've simply created user defined languages.

In order to achieve a navigation pane, I had to use an advanced function of Notepad++ called Function List.

What you'll get out of it will look like this:

Navigation and Syntax Highlighting

One the above picture you can see syntax highlighting on an eQuest Input File (.inp). To the right, you have the "Function List" pane that serves as a navigation pane: - You get classes (major sections) - You can expend them to get an anchor to any specific object

Similar results are obtained for EnergyPlus as well.

For E+, I also have a macro to achieve code folding should you need it.

For the files as well as as installation guidelines, please go to my Github repository, where the readme should explain everything you need to know.
