Geany support for SCSS/SASS
Geany is great development environment based on scintilla. Unfortunately since years, support for web development was a bit miserable.
Below you can find two patches to improve sass support in geany.
geany-1.32-lexer-scss-fix-v01
It fixes css & scss syntax highlighting. It supports css, scss and may be used for less. There is no support for coloring keywords, nut it may be added in future. Code folding & auto completion works as well.
geany-1.32-lexer-ctags-fix-v01
It fixes css symbol lists for css and scss. Id selectors, class selectors, scss mixins and scss variables are supported.
