Issue 1:
How do I associate file extensions with syntax highlighting categories? For instance, I have some common makefile components that are gathered into a file which gets included into various makefiles. In order to allow such a file to be associated with things like editors, I give it an extension, like ‘.mak’. Of course ‘.mak’ is not associated with any syntax highlighting categories in Code::Blocks. Is there a way for me to add it to one of the categories? Issue 1b: How about adding categories?
Issue 2:
Once I can associate file extensions with syntax highlighting categories, what about extensionless files? I’d like to associate those ridiculously extensionless makefiles with a category.
Issue 3:
When I open an un-associated file in Code::Blocks, I get a bit of syntax highlighting weirdness.
The default text color setting appears to be black on white. My C++ color scheme is of the grey on black variety. I don’t like ‘current line’ highlighting, so my current-line-background-color is black also.
Now when I open an un-associated file, I get black text on a white background (ack – I’m blinded!). But when I click on the document, the current line seems to pick up my C++ current-line-background-color, which gives me… black on black – the most illegible color scheme of them all. This makes editing really annoying.
