Need golang language support!

[jchdng]

Notepad 3 is my favorite text editor, but It's a pity without supports for go language.

[RaiKoHoff]

Since nobody seems to be interested to implement this language for Scintilla,
this language will not find its way to Notepad3 :-/
See: https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/feature-requests/750/

Closing this ticket for now.

Go's scheme can be set as c++

Need D Language support - is Part of Scintilla's lexers and can be used for Go too ... lets see

[RaiKoHoff]

Feel free to try and test if Scintilla's "D" source code lexer is also able to fit your "Go" needs:

About the implemented feature: golang support bast on "D" Lexer:
There has been no feedback, if the "D" lexer fits the needs for the golang - i am not able to judge about...
Maybe one of you guys (@jchdng , @ccpaging, @SeaHOH) can check this.
If the D lexer does not work, maybe another Lexer would do ...

Oh, this is the first time I heard about notepad3.
It looks like works fine for golang, but I am not quite sure, because I am a beginner of golang and write something is just my hobby.

The example editor SciTE uses the "C" lexer to parsing golang, like the answer in https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/feature-requests/750/
This commits was commits 6 years ago.

@SeaHOH : Okay, thank you for your feedback. As far as there a no issues regarding the use of D lexer for golang, I think we can "go" with that 😃
