My reason for changing the file name instead of the source code name is that I am hoping that I can remember when a new version of J7 is released to still use that system's gtk.ijs, and to only supply my dylib by inserting it into the ~install/gtk/lib/ . I have saved a backup copy of those files outside of the J701 directory; I can use it to put into the new ~install/gtk/lib/ .
I have opened some old ijs files and when I select some code I get it highlighted. Is that, "source code highlighting," as you called it? And yes, I am getting j701 jgtk to work, thanks. Oh and before I forget I learned from Ric's post to supply the following info. JVERSION Engine: j701/2011-01-07/14:33 Library: 7.01.033 Platform: Darwin 32 Installer: j701a_mac_powerpc.dmg InstallPath: /Users/brian/j701 Thanks, again On Mon, Jan 17, 2011 at 2:00 PM, Charles Turner <[email protected]> wrote: > On Jan 17, 2011, at 12:50 PM, Brian Schott wrote: > >> I got the following result after I moved the two .dylib files >> to the ~install/gtk/lib directory and renamed the alias file >> "libgtksourceview-1.0.0.dylib" to "libgtksourceview-2.0.0.dylib". >> So what features does this add? > > libgtksourceview adds source code highlighting to the editor.
