Re: [gedit-list] Class Browser Plugin

[Christopher Backhouse <cjbackhouse gmail com>]

At first glance it seems that this only recognises languages by their 
file extensions (eg my python code isn't in a .py file but can be 
recognised by the #!/usr/bin/python at the top). It would be helpful if 
you could either check for hints as to the language type such as this, 
or probably better hook into whatever mechanism gedit uses to correctly 
identify these files. (or point me at the option I've missed where I can 
force the language)
Saved me the work of writing something like this myself though (as I was 
tempted to attempt)
