Hi Pierre! (Once more I had meant to get back to you long before...)

The file is packaged with RKWard, but also with KatePart. Or, more precisely, the syntax highlighting has been split out into a separate module, around a year(?) ago. You can find the r.xml-file, here: https://cgit.kde.org/syntax-highlighting.git/tree/data/syntax . It also does not get installed _as that file_ any more, but rather what gets installed is a pre-compiled collection of all the syntax highlighting definitions in that directory. So that should not be a problem. Or did you actually test and find "R Script" missing in kate? > So, Thomas, regarding your suggestion to submit the script to > KTextEdit, this is a problem: without the r.xml file, it's basically > useless.

(This is the place where it would go to: https://cgit.kde.org/ktexteditor.git/tree/src/script/data/indentation) Thanks for keeping it up! Thomas
