If you give it a shot, feel free to reach out on IRC too for more interactive discussion :-). ciao, Torsten.

I took a quick stab at just moving the keywords from one list to another. Indeed, it seemed to change the indentation behavior - in my mind, for the better.  (But I can't claim to have comprehensively tested it.) It also changed the color of the keywords I moved from green to blue. It's clear that I don't understand what's really going on, because (for instance) "module" is also in keywordSet[0], and it gets a different indentation behavior.  I just took a blind stab, saying "I want 'for' to behave like 'union' " and so moved it into the same list.  I didn't try to understand the lexer. diff --git a/src/scadlexer.cpp b/src/scadlexer.cpp index b5b1a54d..8c9187e6 100644 --- a/src/scadlexer.cpp +++ b/src/scadlexer.cpp @@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ ScadLexer::ScadLexer(QObject *parent) : QsciLexerCPP(parent) { // -> Style: Keyword (lexer.l) keywordSet[0] = - "if else let for each module function true false undef " + "let each module function true false undef " "include use assert"; // -> Style: KeywordSet2 (func.cc) @@ -24,6 +24,7 @@ ScadLexer::ScadLexer(QObject *parent) : QsciLexerCPP(parent) // -> Style: GlobalClass keywordSet[3] = + "for if else" "cube sphere cylinder polyhedron square circle polygon text " "minkowski hull resize child children echo union difference " "intersection linear_extrude rotate_extrude import group "
