I made a substantial update to my little set_geany_colors script (can be found at http://www.milliwatt-software.com/jmg/notes/geany.html#Syntax%20highlighting ). If you were using the previous version, note that the colorscheme file format has been updated: so, if you have any of your own colorschemes, you'll want to back them up and possibly migrate them to the updated format (only a few small changes).

The big change to the program is that now it's fully-configurable: the user may, at their discretion, change which entities (names for things you have a style set for, ex. "identifier_3") are used for which filetype-specific style element (i.e. the keys in the filetypes files). Details are in the set_geany_colors docs in the distribution. I'm guessing most users will not bother with that though, and just use the defaults for those mappings.

You can also now specify optional alternative background colors for most entities. In your colorscheme file, it looks like:

word_2=green;light_green,bold

Enjoy, and please let me know if you find any problems with it or the documentation. (Note, it's only been tested on GNU/Linux.).
