I'm rather thinking the contrary, that Geany should support wider use cases so long as it doesn break another one. And thus I would think the parser should accept leading whitespaces as well. And I don't think that we can rely on this file type to guarantee any particular syntax, for example the parser accepts `;` comments, and I didn't look again but I guess the lexer has similar extension that breaks your expectations of the highlighting being a validator or similar. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/3428#issuecomment-1465824996 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
