@dhaumann yes, your guess is correct. I was experimenting with replacing a difficult-to-maintain qscintilla fork with some custom syntax lexers with QTextEdit + KSyntaxHighlighting + easier-to-maintain custom Kate-style syntax definitions, in a non-KDE application. One of the custom syntax rules is arguably more generally useful outside of the application (although it may be misleading since it shares an extension with a more common use), but the others I feel would just pollute the global set since they're unlikely to ever be edited outside the app. REPOSITORY R216 Syntax Highlighting REVISION DETAIL https://phabricator.kde.org/D7699 To: zrax, #kate, #framework_syntax_hightlighting, dhaumann Cc: dhaumann, vkrause, cullmann, #framework_syntax_hightlighting, #frameworks
