[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Geany does pick up the correct filetype extension for syntax highlighting. (#1657)

>  Tools/ConfigurationFiles/filetypes_configuration.conf

 No such thing, I presume you mean Tools/ConfigurationFiles/filetype_extensions.conf

The `Conf` pattern `*rc` (which is for the various types of rc files used during system startup) will also match `.irbrc`, since that is "some characters that end in `rc`".  The patterns are intended to be distinct, if they overlap the first to match will win, which I think is the nearest to the top in the list (or it might be lowest alphabetical filetype name, havn't checked).
