Hi!
Having only gtksourcerview can make the maintenance easier, but on the other side it can limit user's choice for editor. Personally I'm a Scintilla fan and I'd really like to help keeping up with gtk+ 3.0 support. The only problem is the time: I'm not sure I can serve both symbol-db/c++ parser/lsp-c++ and scintilla maintenance.
As I said before I am in no way opposed still supporting the scintilla editor but I cannot do the maintaince. Sebastien and you have done that in the past, if you can port it to 3.0 and GSettings I see no problem.
On the other side gtksourceview is lacking a really important thing IMHO: support for custom syntax highlighting. In that way I would like to search for someone that could provide a simple xml-color-schema to integrate into Anjuta preferences, in a way like it's for Scintilla right now. It shouldn't be that difficult I suppose. A python plugin can also be thought: it has good xml-parsing utilities.
Shouldn't be that difficult if it is the only thing missing for you. Maybe I will have a look into that but I am not sure yet how to properly install a custom theme. Maybe it can just be saved in the ~/.gtksourceview dir or something like that. Regards, Johannes
