Hi All
Using FreeBasic with Geany 1.27 and having difficulty getting the user1=myspecialword to work. I have copied the filetypes.freebasic to ~/.config/geany/filedefs and edited it there.
From my reading on the FreeBasic forum I saw that the colouring of user1 is controlled by word3. The filetypes.freebasic suggest editing colours in the colorscheme .conf file. There wasn't a file there, but copying alt.conf there made no change at all.
If I add my word to the [keywords] then it gets high lighted, but I want separate colours for the user1 keywords.
Can someone please suggest what the problem is.
Regards
Works for me with latest Geany development version.
The `user1` keywords are highlighted by the `keyword_3` style. To change that you should edit that style in the style file you are using (which is filetypes.common if you are using the default style and menu->tools->configuration files->filetypes.common will load it).
Cheers Lex

Hi All
Thanks Lex, I have it working now.
Another reason why it didn't, is any of the letters are capitalized ie: user1=Myspecialword
Now all I have to do is choose the right colours so the programming page doesn't look
like a Picasso.

Hi All
I notice that in some filetypes. there are entries called:
user3=
user4=
From that I assumed that I can add more user key word lists (with different colours).
I have edited my filetypes.freebasic by adding:
user3=myroutine
then added:
keyword_5=0xFF3030;;false;false
to filetypes.common (if Keyword_3 is user1, then hopefully keyword_5 is user3)
However, that doesn't work. Is it even possible to do this, or are there more changes to make ?

It depends on the Scintilla lexer if they work or not. Basic lexer probably doesn't support extra keyword lists.
