Hello List, I've started last week to work on a Syntax highlighter for the Ruby language for SynEdit. You can find it here: http://github.com/ik5/SynEdit-syntaxes .
I have many things I do not understand in the highlighter issue. For example how to create the ident (I've looked at the sources of other languages, yet I do not understand how it's been done). This is one of the things I require help at the moment to understand. How do I make the folding issues ? And the list goes on (I'll ask it when I'll need to implement it, when I do not understand). This beginning of working for it, started because I think Lazarus is a great IDE, and it should support additional programming languages (For now non GUI development). Because I use Ruby a lot, and we do not have any Syntax Highlighter for it, I decided to try and make Lazarus to support Ruby at first. If any of you think also that Lazarus should support additional languages as part of the IDE (not only the coloring of the syntax that is), I will be glad if people will help me in this manner. Thanks, Ido http://ik.homelinux.org/
