[Geany-Users] Defining Functions for Geany “Filetype”

[Gil Hornung]

Thank you Matthew,

So I need to copy python.c into some other file (e.g. snakemake.c) and make changes to it?

What should I do after that? How do I compile it and where so I store it such that Geany will use it?

Thank you,

Gil

It's baked into the ctags parser[0]. Adding a new keyword like this would require modifying the existing (or adding a new) parser.
