erlang syntax highlighting file (2.86 KB, application/octet-stream)

Description Martin Ankerl 2007-05-07 07:49:44 UTC 
The following attachment is a syntax highlighting file for the language Erlang.

It contains one known bug that I am unable to fix, it cannot highlight correctly $" or $' (see http://www.erlang.org/doc/doc-5.4.13/doc/reference_manual/data_types.html#2.2 for details).

I have also submitted a bug report to freedesktop to add the mime type:

Sorry for not having replied sooner, but gtksourceview was a bit in flux.

As of gtksourceview-1.90, the .lang format has changed. Can you update the language to the new format?

By the way, to be inlcuded in gtksourceview the lang file has to be licensed under the LGPL.

I'll see what I can do to make a nice erlang.lang file, if noone beats me to it.
Comment 5 Paolo Borelli 2007-08-26 16:10:31 UTC 
I created an erlang.lang in the new format and committed it. Seems to work fine with the test files I tried, but feedback is more than welcome.
