I am very surprised by gedit's bad properties: the following journal led to gedit syntax highlighting *R, *r, and *sh files: -------------- 1104 gedit cartetempe1.r 1105 gedit cartetempe1.R 1106 ls *sh 1107 gedit truc.sh 1108 gedit cartetempe1.R 1109 history 1110 history > histoire -------------- In line 1104 (resp.1105), I had to associate *.r (resp *.R) with its syntax highlightener: Affichage -> Mode de coloration->Scripts-> R then at line 1108 the syntax was automagically colored (with R syntax) and , trust me, *r are recognised, too. Line 1107 was used to verify there was no terrible mess with bash scripts.... Bash scripts remained highlighted with *bash* syntax... The same phenomenon occured with c files, which kept their syntax coloring... gedit (2.16.0) could edit plain files without trying to syntax highlight!!! Though gedit is not my favorite editor (vim and emacs are less ressource/RAM greedy) I was curious to test it,too...
