Hi
You're a thief! ;)
OK I did what you said and made some improvements to the Bundle. I like to share what i did with others! Maybe you want to implant it in the Bundle.
But in the meanwhile i have some problems here: 1. There are to main Forum Softwares out there which the people (and me) use most. The one is vBulletin and the other is phpBB. These two have slight differents in their way reacting to BBCode. For example Lists and Links. vBulletin writes a link like this: [URL=http://www.examplesite.com%5DPlease visit this great Page![/URL] phpBB writes: [URL="http://www.examplesite.com%22%5DPlease visit this great Page![/URL] (with quoation marks for the URL) How do i get rid of this problem? Or do i have to expand the Bulletin Board Language for this to work?
2. This one is quite easy i hope ;) How do i make a submenu from quite similar items? Like all the List items i want to appear in the List submenu and so on.
Thanks for your help! Zettt

Not really sure what the goal is. You could make the grammar support both forms, but of course, during insertion, you’ll need to choose one of the two. Do you use different file extensions for the two cases? If so, it would be easiest to create two grammars, one for each, that have different root scopes, so you can scope snippets and commands differently.
That is, best to make them derived from the same root, and let them include the same base grammar (for maximum reuse).

Go to the bundle editor, click just the bundle name, and you have a bundle menu editor.

They don't really have file extensions. These are ad-hoc, poorly defined, simplistic markup languages that vary extensively from one forum to another. I made the BBCode bundle to match the syntax of the forums I have used most. Unfortunately, just about every forum has at least slightly different syntax.
This is basically because BBCode sucks. Alas. I wish everyone would just use markdown for these types of things. Maybe people will learn from the example of sites like reddit.

I think this is probably the best bet. Because we should really scope as invalid the parts that won't work on a particular version of the software, so that users don't enter broken markup.
