[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Recognise SCSS/Less etc as CSS files for syntax highlighting purposes (#2767)

[pythonmegapixel]

I love Geany and use it all the time, but I was a little disappointed to find that CSS extension languages - such as Sass, SCSS and Less - do not have syntax highlighting

The userbase for these is probably small enough that new syntax highlighting rules specific to these languages would not be worthwhile, but to me it would make sense for the '.less' and '.scss' filename extensions to be recognised as CSS files (the same as '.css'); these languages are supersets of vanilla CSS (so the new features they add would still not receive highlighting, but most of the usual syntax highlighting one might expect would work)

Sass syntax is slightly different (uses indentation rather than braces a-la-Python) but still not a million miles from normal CSS.
