These languages are supported by MonoDevelop, and there is a way to change the coding style for C#, but how can I do the same for C and C++?
I contacted a MonoDevelop devoloper, who indicated that this functionality does not exist in MonoDevelop.

As an RTL developer, I find it annoying that my favorite text editors (Notepad++, Sublime, VS Code) don't have autoformat options for RTL languages like Verilog and VHDL. So I took it upon myself to create one.
I want to develop an auto-format extension for one of those editors. I dropped Notepad++ because it doesn't have native support for Linux and macOS.
So, the question is: how to get started in developing an auto-format extension for a language for Sublime and VS Code?
Notes:
I don't intend to develop an extension for both editors but I'd want to see which would be more feasible.
With Verilog being closer to C syntax, it might be easier to start there (and I also prefer it over VHDL, but let's not get into religious discussions)
I know that Emacs and Sigasi editors provide auto-format options for RTL languages but their format options are strict and I don't like the outcome, hence I intend to make the formatting style configurable
I ran into this work https://github.com/thomasrussellmurphy/istyle-verilog-formatter it might be useful to build on it if possible

In my opinion, I would prefer coding RTL languages in VS code because it's more versatile than sublime text as in free beer and speech. I would highly recommend beginning from here https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/extensions/example-hello-world.
Oh, you also need to know Typescript / Javascript to write an extension.

I am excited to see the port of this to VS Code/ Sublime Text. I am sorry I don't know how to work on from C++ to TypeScript. My guess would be to copy the implementation method and write in TypeScript.
From their website :
Prerequisites:
You need Node.js installed and available in your $PATH. Node.js includes npm, the Node.js Package Manager, which will be used to install the extension generator.
I am pretty excited to see auto formatting extensions for Verilog. I hope i can contribute too :)
Edit :
I found this https://github.com/g2384/VHDLFormatter written in TypeScript. The transition to VSCode/Sublime would be easier than the above in C++. I have tested it personally and it works awesome! Hope it helps :)
I'm developing C# .Net Core 2.0 on Rider IDE.I cannot find a plugin which sketches UML diagram.I know a plugin called yFile that it exist in IntelliJ IDEA for Java.But seems not available for Rider IDE.Any open source or official plugin equivalent yFile for Rider IDE exist?
Rider currently doesn't support UML diagrams out of box. While you can track issues regarding adding this feature here and here and hope for generosity of JetBrains, you can also use this plugin.
It integrates PlantUML into almost all of the JetBrains IDEs. You can write your own descriptions of entities (in close to plain text style) from which UML will be generated.
After years of coding in modern IDEs (Visual Studio, Xcode, JetBrain's products) I'm quite used to invaluable Jump to definition feature. It is especially invaluable for system libraries and frameworks when you yet learning the core features of the new language.
Is there any way to achieve the same functionality for the Rust combined with any modern IDE or text editor? Any vim, sublime text plugin?
IDE support for Rust is not there yet. There exists at least the Racer project, that provides a jump-to-definition feature among other things.
Racer is intended to be integrated into any IDE/text editor, and ships with an emacs integration.
In Vim and emacs you can use ctags to get you a lot of the way there; the language definitions are in src/etc/ctags.rust and you can produce tags for the Rust distribution with make TAGS.vi (or make TAGS.emacs for emacs’ format). See mk/ctags.mk for more information.
For setting them up and using them in Vim, see :help tags.
There is a project called rusty-tags generating ctags for Rust. At the time of this post, it is still actively maintained.
The RustDT IDE now supports Open Definition functionality, using the Racer tool.
Sublime's RustAutoComplete has a working Go to Definition using a separately installed Racer.
I'm using it and it works.
That being said, in 2014 the language is still in a flux and the Racer functionality is still limited.
I currenly have "auto_complete": false and only use the completion manually (with a keyboard shortcut) in order to avoid some Racer crashes.
Emacs can be integrated with rust-analyzer via lsp-mode. This will allow you to navigate the source code using Rust's type system. I describe a detailed setup in the code navigation section of my Rust with Emacs guide.
dumb-jump works well for rust.
I want to make my NSIS code more readable.
I need some guidelines regarding writing code section wise (like there is #region #endregion in C#) or any such information that can make writing NSIS code interesting and easy.
Please help me out.
Also there is Visual Studio (2008, 2008, 2010 and 2012) addin available called Visual & Installer.
It offers a lot of features like syntax highlighting, navigation, (GoTo definition, Goto reference, navigation bars, open file at cursor, ...) also IntelliSense support and much more.
Try here: http://www.unsigned-softworks.sk/visual-installer/
If you are looking for an IDE, you can try with SciTE that supports code folding, colorization, makensis compilation from the editor and compilation errors parsing. (BTW: Scite is not actually an IDE, but rather a very light yet powerful text editor with built-in support for colorizing and compiling programming languages)
With the latest versions of SciTE, you just need to uncomment the loading of NSIS support that is not enabled by default.
Also, there is the Development Environments section of the NSIS wiki that can point you some alternatives (like adding NSIS support to Eclipse).
I'm looking a tool that will display details of syntax errors in my code as I'm typing it, in the same way that Visual Studio does. I'm currently using Gedit, but am not adverse to acquiring a new text editor. I'm using C++ and HTML/CSS right now, but will be branching out to more languages in the future, so it needs to have support for as many languages as possible. I'd also like to avoid using an IDE as I feel more productive using a text editor and the GNU toolchain. Any suggestions?
You will likely have difficulty finding a simple one-file editor that can do this. An IDE is virtually a necessity, since it integrates with a compiler to detect errors/warnings.
If you use an IDE (and I would recommend Eclipse or maybe KDevelop), you can continue to use the GNU toolchain; you don't need to build your project from the IDE if you don't want to. I regularly use Eclipse for programming and then Ant or Make in a terminal for building.
How about Eclipse?
vim does syntax highlighting well. As far as I know, however, it doesn't have the ability to display the details of the syntax errors in the editor. The constant "hands on keyboard" does speed up programming, though.
vim with the pyflakes plugin does this for python, but I don't know about other languages.
