There is a custom file type syntax highlighter for Objeck here:

https://github.com/objeck/objeck-lang/tree/master/docs/syntax/geany

But there is no official lexilla lexer yet. There is an open FR on lexilla's repo:

ScintillaOrg/lexilla#121

The OP summed the problem with the custom file type syntax highlighter pretty well. But he is wrong about the similarity between Objeck and C/C++. They are both curly braces languages but they are not really similar. I think Objeck needs its own lexer.

I don't know which languages most resemble Objeck, but using the C ctags parser for Objeck seems to not work well, too.
