Hi Seth,
Since you top posted I've lost the thread.
Have you submitted a patch that successfully integrates either your own or the scintilla lexer into geany? Including the filetype code & a filetypes.??? file (what is the extension for cobol?)
Cheers Lex

Have you seen the HACKING file?
Yes, this is where I got the info to add the COBOL lexr
OK, it mentions about checking the Scintilla project first, but after several recent patches I just added a clearer warning.
Thanks, I really just want to contribute back as much as I am possible.
A few points: We use an unmodified version of Scintilla - any changes to the COBOL lexer should be passed to Scintilla before we apply them. Using the C lexer style constants also means we don't have to update and maintain the cobol copies in editor.c.
I will submit this new lexer to the Scintilla project after the changes are made.
I wasn't clear; there's already a COBOL scintilla lexer - so I think the Scintilla maintainer would only accept a patch to improve the existing one.
Awesome, I see this in scintzilla 2.01. what needs to happen to get this merged? _______________________________________________ Geany-devel mailing list Geany-devel@uvena.de http://lists.uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany-devel
