Description James Willcox 2003-04-16 22:11:41 UTC 
Right now, the files in ~/.gnome2/gtksourceview-1.0/language-specs
completely displace the system defaults.  It would be nice if the user
syntax files could simply add/overide individual keywords/patterns/etc,
that was the files could contain just the changes you want to make (and not
the entire rest of the file).

Changing title to differentiate from #312241. This is already implemented in the
new highlighting code. Changing dependency to that.

It's unlikely that this feature is ever going to be implemented, so I close the bug.
