It will have to be in Geany, changing the regex will not do anything. Filetype names are stored in a hash table, which is intrinsically case sensitive so, assuming it does not break anything to do so, all uses of the hash table need to casefold the filetype names. Not difficult, but not "trivial" either. > > [1] https://github.com/geany/geany/issues > > best regards. > > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/users
