[Geany-Users] Using Geany for Zephir sources

Thanks all for your help!
I got it! I know what puts the mess in the symbols : it's the Return 
Type Hint (http://zephir-lang.com/oop.html#return-type-hints).
So if you change the Hello World example this way :

namespace  Test;

class  Hello
{
     /**
      * This is a sample method
      */
     public  function  returnHello()_*  -> string*_
     {
         return  "Hello World!";
     }
}

Highlighting is correct but the symbols do not appears correctly when 
setting the document type to C#.

What can I do ?
