I didn't realize I'd have to create the lexer myself. Is it possible
to use the C lexer that's already in Geany and then work it into the
QML file type? The only thing I really want to get working is the
symbol list (which would be the ctags thing you refered to if I'm not
mistaken, right?).
You could look at the CTags tutorial about extending[1], it has an
example for writing a "regex-based" parser which will probably be
quite a bit easier for a language like QML, if maybe less powerful
than a character-based parser.

Ok, so I've been looking at the CTags tutorial you posted, and it really
looks pretty easy, especially using regex, but there is one thing I
can't find. Would you happen to know if when using regex it's possible
to have mulitple regexes? For example, the tutorial has this:
|addTagRegex (language, "^def[ \t]*([a-zA-Z0-9_]+)", "\\1", "d,definition",
NULL);|
Which is using the regex to create tags labelled 'definition' (unless
I'm missing something). But since QML supports javascript I at the very
least want to have it recognize Items/Components, and functions. And I'd
eventually like to have it label the Items/Components by ID if it's present.
Now I know there's also the callback method, but for now, do you know if
it will work to have addTagRegex appear multiple times?
Also, I can't seem to find anything on how I'll even test this, do you
know if ctags can maybe be run from terminal or something???
Anyways, I know I'm asking a lot of questions, so thanks for all the help.
