Color Coding
On Windows, the default font in the script editor is 10-point Consolas. On Macintosh, the default script editor font is 13-point Menlo.
JMP applies the following colors in the script window:
•
black for text, identifiers (JSL functions), braces, and user macros
•
white for the script editor background
•
gray for the disabled background and guides
•
green for comments
•
purple for strings
•
maroon for platform names
Note: If a platform name is used in a message, the JSL messages color is used.
•
teal blue for numbers
•
dark blue for operator symbols, the first keyword, and JSL messages
•
medium blue for function names, second and third keywords, and macros
•
red for unknown objects
You can customize colors and fonts in the Customize Styles section of the Script Editor preferences. Syntax coloring for JSL, the log, SAS code, JavaScript, Text, JMP Text Analytics, R, Matlab, Python, C, JSON, and SQL are supported.
