Thomas, mind posting the lexer on the SF patch requests? That's what they are for, after all ;-)

Anyway, I'm considering adding a lexer for CLIPPER since that's what we use at the job and i'm dying to use C::B instead of the DOS editor we use there :lol:.

Unfortunately that requires Scintilla 1.64, and wxwidgets' is 1.54 :(.

On the good news, i finally found out how to use the wxScintilla control! :D It's a *nearly exact* copy of STC. That means we only have to compile it (gulp :shock: lol) and link to it. Even the constants are the same!  8)

I also consider that a plus, since we would have to spare the author from having to *make* STC separatedly. It would just compile as part of the Code::Blocks package :)

Lol, I would die if I had to use CLIPPER at all.

Big plus, yes.
