Hi, This is really a feature request, not a bug. I wrote the mail to R-devel, but nobody answered it. I use Gnome on my computer and sometimes I use its default text editor gedit. It uses gtksourceview library for syntax highlighting. I decided that it would be nice if gedit supported R syntax. So I created apropriate .lang file: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=157370 Gedit picks apropriate lang file according to file mimetype, so I created apropriate mime type for files with extension .R. I filed a bug report at freedesktop.org: https://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1782 There Christophe Fergeau suggested that maybe R could take care of installing this mime type by itself. Is it possible? As I understand it would only concern Linux installations and R should cooperate with shared-mime-info package which is responsible for all mime type definitions.
