I installed SciTE (2.0.1) using Synaptic Package Manager on Ubuntu
9.10.

I uncommented the line "#import r" in the global properties file.
Then I loaded a R file, but I didn't see the highlighting syntax.

I was wondering this because I had a user properties file with the
importing action, but I get the same result. So I tried with a bare
and fresh installation with only that tweak.

Any idea?

Regards,
Alberto

P.S.: On Windows box it works correctly.

Linux is case-sensitive for file names. Check that your file name
matches the case of the pattern in r.properties.

I tried with "myfile.r" and with "myfile.R". No result.

The file pattern was the following one:
"file.patterns.r=*.R;*.rsource;*.S;"

I modified file pattern adding *.r:
"file.patterns.r=*.r;*.R;*.rsource;*.S;"

Now it works with a file "myfile.R".

Thanks for the hint, but I am not sure if it is the correct behaviour
of the property file.

Alberto

There was a bug with upper-case extensions on GTK+. Fixed in CVS.
