Cannot change language for syntax highlighting
Reported by marzapower | April 23rd, 2009 @ 09:09 AM | in 0.3
I got this error creating a new file and trying to set it to use Ruby code highlighting:
- Open redcar
- File -> New
- Type some ruby code (optional)
- Click on the bottom right combo box
The editor doesn't let you chose a language for the current document and sets a default "Plain Text" format.
Saving the file as "test.rb" sets the editor to the Ruby code syntax highlighting, but even in this case it is not possible to change language.
I'm a fool and I want to code Python applications saving source code in ".rb" format. How can I do this? :D

What happens when you use the combo box? Are there any errors?

Nothing. No errors. When clicking on the combo box the box itself freezes for a second, then gets focus and nothing happens.
No errors even in the terminal.

I cannot select anything.
If I create a new file I get Plain Text, and cannot change.
If I save the file to ".rb" format I get Ruby, and cannot change.

Try to start redcar like this:
REDCAR_DEBUG=1 /path/to/bin/redcar --log
and see if it prints anything to the terminal
