Interesting. gedit will apply syntax highlighting automatically to files with an expected file extension - for example <file>.php _should_ be highlighted based on PHP language elements. Is it the case that your files do not have a .php extension and the other files you mention do?
I can't see any reason why manually selecting PHP from the highlight menu doesn't help though. I would suggest updating to the latest versions of gtksourceview and gedit (just in case) if you haven't already done so. -- No automatic syntax highlighting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/252449 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
