Description Shriramana Sharma 2007-08-29 09:24:50 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Please add syntax highlighting for Jamfiles which are similar to Makefiles but are used by the Boost Build system and other Perforce-Jam-based build systems.

Some references for the syntax:

Comment 2 Shriramana Sharma 2007-10-06 13:00:17 UTC

Yes, so please take this as a request to include those and other useful Kate highlighters from kde-files.org into the default distro. Thanks for the link, BTW. Didn't even know of such a section in kde-files.org!
