Hello!
I'm extending my filetypes.perl to support Moose and MooseX::Declare keywords.
Some of them, however, are not a single word but two. For example:
is mutable is dirty
I would prefer to to add "is", "mutable" and "dirty" as primary keywords, as they're meaningless alone. Is it possible to have something regex-base such as:
/is\s+mutable/
parsed to search for keywords?
Thanks, Michele.
BTW: Geany is great!
Hi,
Geany uses the Scintilla editing component which provides the lexers that parse the source for colourising.
AFAICT the Perl lexer does nothing but simple word comparison for keywords (see LexPerl.cxx in the src/scintilla directory of Geany).
So someone would have to modify the Perl lexer to use regular expressions instead.
Also Geany tries to use scintilla without any modifications so it is preferable if this is added to the upstream scintilla first.
Cheers Lex
