GtkSourceView is a library which extends Gtk+'s text widget providing syntax highlighting and other features typical of a source code editor.
This new version of the library is an important milestone for the project since it marks the beginning of a new stable series which is not compatible with previous versions of the library (but it is parallel-installable with them). GtkSourceView 2.0 features a complete rewrite of the syntax highlighting engine, providing a much more accurate highlighting for many languages and in particular allowing to correctly highlight cases like php-in-html or gtk-doc in a C file. The new engine also supports style-schemes that allow to describe colors to be used by the widget in a simple xml file. Printing support that was using the obsolete gnome-print library has been dropped, as a result GtkSourceView now depends only on GTK+ and libxml. glib 2.14 or above is suggested so that GtkSourceView can take advantage of the regular expression support built into glib instead of falling back to an internal copy. download: http://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/gnome/sources/gtksourceview/2.0/ The PyGtkSourceView bindings are also available. download: http://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/gnome/sources/pygtksourceview/2.0/ Hopefully other language bindings will follow soon. ciao Paolo _______________________________________________ gnome-devtools mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-devtools
