User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.3) Gecko/20060523 Ubuntu/dapper Firefox/1.5.0.3
Build Identifier: 

Mousepad is a nice little editor, but it would be useful to have syntax highlighting for programming purposes.  I realize this would require a different widget, and would increase starup-times quite a bit, however.  Just my 2 cents, whatever they're worth.

Reproducible: Always

Mousepad 0.5 (so after we released a stable 0.4 from my 0.3 branch), will have support for this, but using a plugin/module based system. I haven't really digged into this, but I think it's possible with an attach system (although that requires a completely new object to do this).

Probably won't see this in a long time, but I'll leave the bug open.
Comment 3 Andre Miranda editbugs 2013-10-02 05:21:27 CEST 
I think this bug should be closed because Mousepad now supports syntax highlighting for lots of languages.

Fixed in latest versions.
