Features

  • syntax highlighting from the language-mscgen package - so no need to install that separately.
  • realtime rendering of your sequence chart
  • SVG export - to file or clipboard
  • PNG export - to file
  • Uses the pure javascript mscgenjs package for parsing and rendering, so apart from MscGen (*.mscgen, *.mscin, *.msc) it supports
    • (*.xu)
      A little language that adds things like alt and loop to MscGen. See the Xù wiki page for more information.
    • MsGenny (*.msgenny)
      Xù with a simplified syntax. And a little less features. The MsGenny wiki page has more information.
  • Frictionless conversion MscGen/ Xù <=> MsGenny
    • Check the editor context menu for
      • MsGenny -> MscGen/ Xù,
      • MscGen -> MsGenny and
      • Xù -> MsGenny
    • or use Mscgen Preview: Translate in the command palette.
