> I tested it, but I did not have any syntax highlighting.
I assume on Linux. Do you have syntax highlighting at all, for example in
gedit? Do you have syntax highlighting for other files, maybe xml?
You may try with another file extension, like
./ned nimdark1.xml
but I just discovered that it will crash at program termination with xml.
Sorry, will try to fix it soon.
Of course, as I wrote in the doc: " Maybe you want to try the included color
scheme and syntax highlight XML file? In that case you may consult the gedit
instructions. On my Linux box I put these file where the other GtkSourceView
files reside: "
# as root
cp nimdark1.xml /usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0/styles/
cp nim.lang /usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0/language-specs/
For the build script -- yes I will consider that when there should exist people
really interested using it. But I heard that VSCode and other editors work fine
with Nim, so maybe I will remain the only single user :) (I read the nimble
chapter in Dom's book, my impression was that it is really hard to provide a
nimble install without conflicting with old GTK2. And unfortunately the
gsettings install require root permission, which some people may not really
like. I will ask on gtk mailing list is there may be a solution which does not
require root, but the lists and IRC are very death currently, and I think as
long as there are no real users, the few remaining gtk people will not care.)
