Hi all,
New to Geany (and programming).
I would very much like to have escape sequences highlighted in a similar
way to gedit. I've searched high and low for an explanation on how to
achieve this and have come up empty. I'm sure it's very simple, however
it's a mystery to me! I have attached a screenshot to visually explain
what I mean.
Hi,
I had some code I was using to highlight colours in the text but it's quite
general so I adapted it to highlight escape sequences for you, it's here if
you want it:

See the Plugin Howto for information on how to compile it.
Cheers,

Hi Matthew,
Couple of questions to check I'm reading it right
1. isn't copying the entire buffer (sci_get_contents copies the whole
file into a malloced buffer) on each change a bit heavy if the file is
not tiny
Kinda sorta. At one point I was use GETCHARACTERPOINTER but it seemed to
mess with the regexp, so I made a copy.
2. you are changing indicators (calling scan_extra_items) in a
SCN_MODIFIED notification, but scintilla explicitly states "No
modifications may be performed while in a SCN_MODIFIED event"
It's lying? Maybe it means modification of the text and not the styling
stuff?
Anyway, it works fine for my uses (with colour regexps).
Cheers,
Matthew Brush
