Re: [Geany-Users] EuGeany - Geany support for the Euphoria Programming Language

I attempted to add Euphoria information to: http://wiki.geany.org/config/** start http://wiki.geany.org/config/start It appears that I have mucked up the page a bit by adding my whole file when I should have added a link to the file. I have a draft saved... what is the best way to recover?

Thanks in advance, Ken Rhodes

Greetings All,

This "kludge" may interest those who are interested in using Geany to edit source files in languages for which Geany has no native support.

I have managed to obtain a high degree of support for the Euphoria Programming Language, including syntax color and context sensitive help, by backing up the original lua support files/references in filetypes.lua, filetype_extensions.conf, and snippets.conf, and then editing the lua files/references to support Euphoria. Support for Lua can be swapped/restored back by executing a batch file type program, written in Euphoria, which overwrites the the euphoria enabled, files with the origninal Lua support files. In like manner, Euphoria support can be selected again by copying/overwriting the Lua enabled files with those supporting Euphoria.

TLDR; but you can make a custom filetype based on Lua's without clobbering the old one, there's some info in the manual: http://www.geany.org/manual/**current/index.html#custom-**filetypeshttp://www.geany.org/manual/current/index.html#custom-filetypes

The general idea goes something like this:

 $ cp /usr/local/share/geany/**filetypes.lua \
     /home/you/.config/geany/**filedefs/filetypes.Euphoria.**conf

And then edit the filetypes.Euphoria.conf file to customize keywords, settings, styles, etc. Then you need to add an extension to filetype_extensions.conf [Extensions] group:

 Euphoria=*.eu;

And then add it to a [Groups] group in that same file:

 Script=...;Euphoria;

Then after you restart all Geany instances you can have Lua and Euphoria side by side without having to choose which one is supported.

Forgot the last step, put it on Geany's Wiki :) http://wiki.geany.org/config/**start http://wiki.geany.org/config/start
