Greetings all;
I find that despite having gcode.xml installed at
/opt/trinity/share/apps/katepart/syntax/gcode.xml
neither kate nor kwrite can find it, as in offer it as a choice in the
menu's. geany doesn't have that either so I am used to looking at gcode
as plain text.
Whats next? The idea does sound helpfull if only to highlight the typu's
these ancient fingers can make.
OTOH, I find kate takes around 20 seconds of standing on the down arrow
key to get to the bottom of a 250 LOC .ngc file. Compared to geany,
thats un-acceptably slow. It also apparently can't save the users prefs,
so every new session has to be reconfigured to enable such as line
numbers. geany remembers all that from session to session. I guess you
know which one I'll use in day to day gcode composition.
