pyproject.toml support (As project file and file format)

[djongepier]

Hi all,

Having used PyScripter as a nice lightweight IDE for python, some things could be improved.
Most notably, I think it would be a good idea to embrace the pyproject.toml format.

1. One way is to support the TOML format. This way the editor will not blind me when I open the file for editing.

2. Another way, but that's really throwing it out there, support the pyproject.toml as THE format for projects in PyScripter.

This is just a suggestion, I do understand that the scope of both options is wildly different. Unfortunately, I'm not able to help since I can barely do Python, and no Delphi/Pascal.

Thank you for this editor, and thanks for reading.

Greetings,

Daniël

Actually the project format is "INI" files which is very similar to TOML. (see this discussion).

Could you please explain?

See this screenshot, when opening the TOML file, it's not with a dark background like the py files.

For the pyproject.toml thing I mentioned, seeing that the project file for PyScripter also stores what files belong to the project, I presume it's not possible to say, ditch the current project format and use the pyproject.toml for Pyscripter's projects too.

I see. you want syntax highlighting for toml files matching the color scheme of other highlighters. Good idea. Will do.

Actually, you can get pretty good results by doing View, Editor, Syntax, INI.
But the support for toml files will be perfect in the next version!
