First of all I want to say hello to Nimrod community ;) I find Nimrod as a exact match for compiled language in my programming toolbox. I use Geany editor for many everyday tasks so created a pull request in github https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/193 to support basic Nimrod syntax in Geany. I'm looking for the new commits if you want to use Geany too ;)

Cool, I've updated https://github.com/Araq/Nimrod/wiki/Editor-Support to link to your effort. Have you looked into integrating Nimrod's idetools for Geany?

Welcome, kamilchm. I haven't used Geany in awhile (I prefer Kate/KDev these days), but it's great to see more IDE's gaining built-in Nimrod support. I'll have to try Geany again in awhile to test out your work :)

Gradha, thanks for showing me the idetools, I missed them somehow ;).

I'll see how to use idetools and base Geany addon on them rather than write the same thing again :)

Fantastic, thank you so much for this. I use Geany for almost all of my non-Nimrod coding, so being able to do this as well will be great.

The mentioned PR for Geany is still not merged. It should be updated to use "Nim" instead of "Nimrod".

I figured out, for syntax highlighting it's enough to have a filetype configuration file, which uses the Python parser. I have uploaded this file to https://github.com/trustable-code/geany-nim-filetype

I'm all for Nim support in Geany, but focusing on the most popular IDEs first would be most beneficial... Support in IntelliJ and Visual Studio (Proprietary, not Code) is lacking...
