How do you add a ‘keyword’ to the GEdit list of keywords? I basiclly want to make the printf function look like a keyword.
printf("Hello World\n");

GEdit uses GtkSourceView for its syntax highlighting. You should be able to find the
c.langfile it uses to highlight C code by typing a command like this:Once you find the lang file, open it up in a text editor (it’s an XML file) and near the bottom you’ll see a list of keywords which you should be able to add
printfto.Thanks to Jeremy’s post I found this page: http://projects.gnome.org/gtksourceview/documentation.html
Here you’ll find a link to both a tutorial and the official reference for the language definition files.
