Thanks for the tip about .local/share/mime. gEdit was not showing any YML files in the file browser, and it was due to some rogue files in that directory, both in applications and in packages. I never would have figured this out without your post!

Hey,
I followed these steps, and those of some other websites - and it works as expected. However, there is one small "problem". In rhtml (or erb), code inside of <% %> is marked as Ruby code, which means it gets the Ruby syntax highlighting -- which is great. What it doesn't get is the Ruby snippets! How do you fix this? Is this a bug in the snippet plugin? Or is there some extra

@Teena: this will make .rjs and .erb files work as expecteded, too. I already updated XML files to support the additional extensions quite a long time ago.

Excellent! Thanks for the tips on getting RHTML highlighted properly - I've recently started using Ubuntu for development at work, and the lack of syntax highlighting was a nightmare.

I can't seem to get erb tags highlighted...they were highlighted before I updated to Gutsy from Feisty...any ideas ?
I've tried:

style name="rhtml:erb-tag" foreground="green" />
style name="rhtml:erb-closing-tag" foreground="green" />

in my style xml file but no go.

Thanks a lot. My dayjob is ASP.NET dev, and I am just starting to do some Rails under Ubuntu at home. Both the framework and the development platform are quite a refreshment after years of Windows and Visual Studio.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!

I have been looking everywhere to get gedit to highlight my rhtml files after upgrading to Gutsy. I finally googled the phrase "gtksourceview-2.0 rhtml" and your post was the only result. Jackpot!

I just recently discovered how awesome gedit is for Rails development. I can't thank you enough, my new Gutsy install is finally complete.
