I am customising a dark colour scheme for Geany and happy with the results so far. I am deliberately using named styles because I want to be able to easily tweak the color scheme without having to change every filetypes.* file.
In doing this I am switching between Geany's configuration files and a sample file of the type I'm wanting to style. The sample file looks OK but the colours which apply to Geany's configuration file are a horrid mixture of the default Geany colour scheme and my own, dark theme. Which file(s) do I need to modify to have the dark theme applied to the configuration files?
The simplest way is to look at what type the yucky file is considered to be, by looking in document->set filetype->... and see which one is selected.
In filetype_extensions.conf look up the type and the first extension listed is the extension of the filetypes.* file that is being used. (except type None is filetypes.common)
Actually I was mistaken, (I may be mistaken, but I'm never wrong :-)
The filetypes extension is the lower case of the filetype name in filetype_extensions.conf with the following exceptions: None = common C++ = cpp C# = cs Make = makefile

Modify as appropriate.

Lex,
Thanks! That helped me understand Geany's configuration files better *and* resolved my problem. I have just one remaining problem which I have reported in a separate thread.
