Agreed, but as the filedefs (filetypes.*) files diverge from the main 
project it becomes harder and harder to keep them in sync.  It's a PITA 
to have to watch each revision to see if the files have changed and then 
update each of them in geany-themes each time.

My plan was to submit a patch against the filedefs files and alt.conf 
and maybe a few of the best color schemes, and then leave the others in 
the geany-themes project.  That way users only need to drop in their 
colorschemes into their home dir and I don't need to maintain a separate 
set of filedefs from Geany's.

Cheers,
