Ugh. Assembly, that brings back bad memories. Gedit uses the GtkSourceView package to handle all it's syntax highlighting, and a lot of other things. It stores it's language files in <your gnome dir>/gtksourceview-1.0/language-specs/ (check language.dtd in this dir, also). Gedit checks this dir every time it starts so no recompiling is required. I thought I saw a few months ago that someone wrote a language spec for NASM, I can't seem to find it now but it might be worth a look before make one. Hope that helps, Paul On Thu, 2004-06-17 at 03:17, buchanan@xxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > Hi, > > I use Gnome 2.6.1 on FreeBSD-4.10.
