i am trying to configure Geany to use it for Lilypond. I have made this File: ~/.config/geany/filedefs/filetypes.lilypond.conf with this content: [styling] comment=0x808080;0xffffff;false;true [settings] # default extension used when saving files extension=ly # block comments comment_open=%{ comment_close=%} comment_use_indent=false [build_settings] # %f will be replaced by the complete filename # %e will be replaced by the filename without extension # (use only one of it at one time) compiler=lilypond "%f" # it is called linker, but here it is an alternative compiler command # linker=pdflatex --file-line-error-style "%f" run_cmd=epdfview "%e.pdf" run_cmd2=timidity "%e.midi" which i had copied here from the forum from an answer. I have still noSyntax colors and can not compile the file with F5. But at the bottom mostpart of the window i see : filetype:lilypond. Can any one help me setting geany up for lilypond?
The problem is that nobody created a lexer for LilyPond, which is needed for syntax highlight to work.
But you can use something "similar" and then adapt it, see: http://lists.geany.org/pipermail/users/2013-September/008835.html I tried with: lexer_filetype=latex but didn't workAlso, Geany is not able to detect the file type by extension, even if I'm using your file, I've added the extension to filetype_extensions.conf and reload the settings. When I open a .ly file, the file type is None. If I choose the lilypond type file, no highlight.
I do not use Geany and I'm not motivated to solve these issues.But, as it's the default editor in LilyDev, it would be good to ship a working .conf file for LilyPond.
Let me know if you manage to make it work! Thanks Federico
