I am surprised that you have any highlighting at all using a filetype.Euphoria, considering this statement in the reference you provided: "You can add a filetype without syntax highlighting or tag parsing, but check to see if those features have been written in other projects first."
I know. I am surprised too. But they apparently did it somewhat right in allowing new definitions to be supported with definition files and not have to be built-in.
This is interesting: " It may be possible to use an existing Scintilla lexer in the scintilla/ subdirectory - if not, you will need to find (or write) one, LexFoo.cxx. Try the official Scintilla project first." Perhaps something in Mike Duffy's Scintilla Edit Control files can be used? http://rapideuphoria.com/cgi-bin/asearch.exu?dos=on&win=on&lnx=on&gen=on&keywords=scintilla
I might try the Scintilla files here shortly. From what I understand, they will work without modification with Geany?
