[Geany-Users] # user definable keywords

Hi All

I notice that in some filetypes. there are entries called:

user3=

user4=

 From that I assumed that I can add more user key word lists (with 
different colours).

I have edited my filetypes.freebasic by adding:

user3=myroutine

then added:

keyword_5=0xFF3030;;false;false

to filetypes.common (if Keyword_3 is user1, then hopefully keyword_5 is 
user3)

However, that doesn't work. Is it even possible to do this, or are there 
more changes to make ?
