Thanks for this great stuff of which I take advantage for long time now. My question is however is there someone to make the *.po and ChangeLog file syntax for the greater benefit of human kind  One might use this Midnight Commander syntax to help us little people out 
mc changelog syntax
| Code: | context default
spellcheck
context linestart \t \n\n
keyword wholeright +() brightmagenta
keyword linestart \t\*\s*: brightcyan
keyword (*): cyan
keyword (*)\{\s\}[*]: cyan
context linestart \s\s\s\s\s\s\s\s \n\n
keyword wholeright +() brightmagenta
keyword \*\s*: brightcyan
keyword (*): cyan
keyword (*)\{\s\}[*]: cyan
keyword whole \* brightcyan
context linestart 19+-+\s \n yellow
keyword <+> brightred
context linestart 20+-+\s \n yellow
keyword <+> brightred
context linestart Mon\s \n yellow
keyword <+> brightred
context linestart Tue\s \n yellow
keyword <+> brightred
context linestart Wed\s \n yellow
keyword <+> brightred
context linestart Thu\s \n yellow

context linestart Fri\s \n yellow
keyword <+> brightred
context linestart Sat\s \n yellow
keyword <+> brightred
context linestart Sun\s \n yellow
keyword <+> brightred |
*.po syntax
| Code: | context default
keyword linestart msgstr\s\"\"\n\n brightred
keyword linestart msgid brightcyan
keyword linestart msgstr brightcyan
context linestart #,\sfuzzy \n\n brightred
context linestart #: \n white
context linestart #, \n white
keyword c-format yellow
context linestart #~ \n red
context linestart # \n brown
spellcheck
context exclusive linestart msgid \n cyan
spellcheck
keyword \"\n\"
keyword \\" brightgreen
keyword \\\n brightgreen
keyword %% brightgreen
keyword %\[#0\s-\+,\]\[0123456789\]\[.\]\[0123456789\]\[L\]\{eEfgG\} brightgreen

After some time I made this syntax for *.po files. It is in no way complete, but here it comes anyway
| Code: | ## *.po file syntax
##
syntax "po" "\.po$"
color brightblue "\<(msgid|msgstr)\>"
color brightred "\/"
color green "#.*$"
color red "\<fuzzy\>"
color yellow "\<c-format\>"
color yellow "\""
color red "\"\""
color brightyellow "\"\\n\""
color brightmagenta "\<(Project\-Id\-Version|Report\-Msgid\-Bugs\-To|Last\-Translator|Language\-Team|charset)\>"
color cyan "\<(POT\-Creation\-Date|PO\-Revision\-Date|MIME\-Version|Content\-Type|Content\-Transfer\-Encoding)\>"
color yellow "\<(Copyright|(C))\>"
color yellow "[0-9]"
color brightyellow "\<(UTF|ISO|Windows|Mac|IBM)\>\-[0-9]"
color red "#~.*$"
|
ChangeLog syntax. Not quite what you would call perfect but somewhat usable | Code: |
## Changelog file syntax
##
syntax "changelogs" "ChangeLog*"
color green "\+"
color red "\-"
color brightwhite "[0-9]"
color brightblue "[0-9][0-9]\:[0-9][0-9]\:[0-9][0-9]"
color blue "[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]\-[0-9][0-9]\-[0-9][0-9]"
color blue "[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]\/[0-9][0-9]\/[0-9][0-9]"
color blue "\<(CEST|CET|CST||CDT|EDT)\>"
color yellow "[0-9]\..*$"
color cyan "\*.*$"
color brightblue "\<(pre.*$|beta.*$|rc.*$|release.*$)\>"
color green "#.*$"
icolor brightred "^[[:space:]]*[.0-9A-Z_]*:"
color green "[[:space:]]*[.0-9A-Z_]*[[:space:]]*[.0-9A-Z_]*[[:space:]]<"
color brightyellow "<.*>$"
color brightwhite "commit[[:space:]]*[.0-9A-Z_]*$" |
There must be a better solution than this...
I also had to put include "/usr/share/nano/changelog.nanorc" in end of my /etc/nanorc for it to work...
Edit:I added some more stuff in there. *.po syntax needs highlighting of phrases to catch syntax errors...

For convenience I placed all the syntax highlighting stuff to be found here along with few more syntaxes in this package http://bigvo.dyndns.org/nanosyntax.tar.bz2

Seeing as bladdo already necro'd it... 
I wrote a little bash wrapper script which uses the `file` command on a file and uses the value to determine what (if any) syntax highlighting to enable in nano via --syntax.
It has a couple of issues though, for one thing you can only use --syntax once on the command line, and all files will end up using the same syntax (so in the script if you pass more than file it'll just start nano normally and let nano decide which highlighting to enable).
Another issue is `file` isn't entirely accurate, most noticeably is that it identifies a lot of diff/patch as C source files if there is a significant comment at the top of the file.
Anyways, here's the script if anyone is interested (and a link); | Code: | #!/bin/bash
NANO="/usr/bin/nano"
for PARAM; do
if [[ -f $PARAM ]]; then
[[ ! $NANOFILE ]] && NANOFILE="${PARAM}" || exec $NANO "$@"
fi
done
case `file -b "${NANOFILE}"` in
*perl*"script text"* )
SYNTAX="--syntax perl"
;;
*python*"script text"* )
SYNTAX="--syntax python"
;;
*ruby*"script text"* )
SYNTAX="--syntax ruby"
;;
*PHP*"script text"* )
SYNTAX="--syntax php"
;;
*"script text"* )
SYNTAX="--syntax sh"
;;
*"diff output text"* )
SYNTAX="--syntax patch"
;;
*C*"program text"*)
SYNTAX="--syntax c"
;;
*"Java program text"* )
SYNTAX="--syntax java"
;;
*"HTML document text"* )
SYNTAX="--syntax html"
;;
esac
exec $NANO ${SYNTAX} "$@"
exit |
It's only really useful for scripts without file extensions (although that alone makes it invaluable to me), and could probably be improved quite a bit, but it does what I want.
It should be easily extendable, too.

Nice one Hopeless, I needed this recently as I was installing on a machine with no X, ended up just adding the filename (update) to this syntax highlighting file: http://dev.gentooexperimental.org/~igli/src/bash.nanorc
It works really nicely for BASH, in some places better than kate. Multi-line strings are the only place it falls over, but you still see the first line in orange. |

Hi all.
I've just upgraded nano to version 2.1.9 and python syntax doesn't seem to work anymore. Nothing is highlighted anymore. Forcing syntax to bash gives some colours à la bash script but I just wonder why python syntax highlighting doesn't work.
| /usr/share/nano/python.nanorc: | ## Here is an example for Python.
##
syntax "python" "\.py$"
header "^#!.*/python[-0-9._]*"
icolor brightblue "def [0-9A-Z_]+"
color brightcyan "\<(and|as|assert|break|class|continue|def|del|elif|else|except|exec|finally|for|from|global|if|import|in|is|lambda|not|or|pass|print|raise|return|try|while|with|yield)\>"
color brightgreen "['][^']*[^\\][']" "[']{3}.*[^\\][']{3}"
color brightgreen "["][^"]*[^\\]["]" "["]{3}.*[^\\]["]{3}"
color brightgreen start=""""[^"]" end=""""" start="'''[^']" end="'''"
color brightred "#.*$"
color ,green "[[:space:]]+$" |
I have added the last colour syntax item so that I see trailing spaces. Any idea?

A small pointer for all of you:
You may want to consider reading and then uncommenting
Uncommenting this file will override your per user settings in ~/.nanorc and enable highlighting on a system-wide basis. Here is the snippet dealing with colors:
| Code: |
## Color setup
##
## Format:
##
## syntax "short description" ["filename regex" ...]
##
## The "none" syntax is reserved; specifying it on the command line is
## the same as not having a syntax at all. The "default" syntax is
## special: it takes no filename regexes, and applies to files that
## don't match any other syntax's filename regexes.
##
## color foreground,background "regex" ["regex"...]
## or
## icolor foreground,background "regex" ["regex"...]
##
## "color" will do case sensitive matches, while "icolor" will do case
## insensitive matches.
##
## Valid colors: white, black, red, blue, green, yellow, magenta, cyan.
## For foreground colors, you may use the prefix "bright" to get a
## stronger highlight.
##
## To use multi-line regexes, use the start="regex" end="regex"
## [start="regex" end="regex"...] format.
##
## If your system supports transparency, not specifying a background
## color will use a transparent color. If you don't want this, be sure
## to set the background color to black or white.
##
## If you wish, you may put your syntaxes in separate files. You can
## make use of such files (which can only include "syntax", "color", and
## "icolor" commands) as follows:
##
## include "/path/to/syntax_file.nanorc"
##
## Unless otherwise noted, the name of the syntax file (without the
## ".nanorc" extension) should be the same as the "short description"
## name inside that file. These names are kept fairly short to make
## them easier to remember and faster to type using nano's -Y option.
##
## All regexes should be extended regular expressions.
## Key bindings
## Please see nanorc(5) for more details on this
##
## Here are some samples to get you going
##
# bind M-W nowrap main
# bind M-A casesens search
# bind ^S research main
## Set this if your backspace key sends delete most of the time (2.1.3+)
# bind kdel backspace all
## Nanorc files
# include "/usr/share/nano/nanorc.nanorc"
## C/C++
# include "/usr/share/nano/c.nanorc"
## Cascading Style Sheets
# include "/usr/share/nano/css.nanorc"
## Debian files
# include "/usr/share/nano/debian.nanorc"
## Gentoo files
# include "/usr/share/nano/gentoo.nanorc"
## HTML
# include "/usr/share/nano/html.nanorc"
## PHP
# include "/usr/share/nano/php.nanorc"
## TCL
# include "/usr/share/nano/tcl.nanorc"
## TeX
# include "/usr/share/nano/tex.nanorc"
## Quoted emails (under e.g. mutt)
# include "/usr/share/nano/mutt.nanorc"
## Patch files
# include "/usr/share/nano/patch.nanorc"
## Manpages
# include "/usr/share/nano/man.nanorc"
## Groff
# include "/usr/share/nano/groff.nanorc"
## Perl
# include "/usr/share/nano/perl.nanorc"
## Python
# include "/usr/share/nano/python.nanorc"
## Ruby
# include "/usr/share/nano/ruby.nanorc"
## Java
# include "/usr/share/nano/java.nanorc"
## AWK
# include "/usr/share/nano/awk.nanorc"
## Assembler
# include "/usr/share/nano/asm.nanorc"
## Bourne shell scripts
# include "/usr/share/nano/sh.nanorc"
## POV-Ray
# include "/usr/share/nano/pov.nanorc"
## XML-type files
# include "/usr/share/nano/xml.nanorc"

There is already a gentoo syntax file in /usr/share/nano named gentoo.nanorc that is in the long list of includes above.

|

Hey guys, I took this from 2.2.4's sh.nanorc and changed a few things:
Variables within double quotes ("") have the correct colour, because they are expanded. Within single quote ('') though, variables have the quotes colour because they arent expanded. Any quotes within comments wont be coloured, they'll just have the comment colour.
| Code: | ## Here is an example for Bourne shell scripts.
##
syntax "bash" "\.sh$"
header "^#!.*/(ba|k|pdk)?sh[-0-9_]*"
icolor brightgreen "^[0-9A-Z_]+\(\)"
color green "\<(case|do|done|elif|else|esac|exit|fi|for|function|if|in|local|read|return|select|shift|then|time|until|while)\>"
color green "(\{|\}|\(|\)|\;|\]|\[|`|\\|\$|<|>|!|=|&|\|)"
color green "-[Ldefgruwx]\>"
color green "-(eq|ne|gt|lt|ge|le|s|n|z)\>"
color brightblue "\<(cat|cd|chmod|chown|cp|echo|env|export|grep|install|let|ln|make|mkdir|mv|rm|sed|set|tar|touch|umask|unset)\>"
color brightyellow ""(\\.|[^"])*""
icolor brightred "\$\{?[0-9A-Z_!@#$*?-]+\}?"
color brightyellow "'(\\.|[^'])*'"
color cyan "(^|[[:space:]])#.*$"
color ,green "[[:space:]]+$" |

I finally found. I had left gentoo syntax file twice in /etc/nanorc. Removing the second line enabled python syntax back  . The moral of the story: beware of having the same syntax file mentioned more than once in /etc/nanorc otherwise all syntax files that are referenced between both occurrences will be disabled. In my case I had
| grep '^include' /etc/nanorc: | include "/usr/share/nano/nanorc.nanorc"
include "/usr/share/nano/c.nanorc"
include "/usr/share/nano/gentoo.nanorc" ## <-- first
include "/usr/share/nano/html.nanorc"
include "/usr/share/nano/patch.nanorc"
include "/usr/share/nano/perl.nanorc"
include "/usr/share/nano/python.nanorc"
include "/usr/share/nano/java.nanorc"
include "/usr/share/nano/gentoo.nanorc" ## <-- second
include "/usr/share/nano/sh.nanorc"
include "/usr/share/nano/xml.nanorc" |
so syntax highlighting was disabled for html, patch, perl, python and java. I just didn't happen to check any other file type but python. Bug IMHO...

With few exceptions for some configs I didn't touch nano syntaxes for quite some time and now I see number of sites have spread around dealing with that stuff. As I went ahead to go though quite a few of them I collected them in the most comprehensive archive to date. Hence I see the thread mentions my old website which changed way back at the time dyndns changed their policy I fought I'll drop a line about new site and the archive.
You can download them all from http://bigvo.hopto.org/nanosyntax.tar.bz2 or independently from http://bigvo.hopto.org/nanosyntax/nano/
- Main directory has files available in nano-2.7.4
- subdirectory extra has stuff divided depending on their use with exception of "new" where are files which I was not sure whee to put them just yet
- alternative directory list files which IMHO are prepared better than those in nano itself. Some of them actually do not differ all that much as they might have only | Code: | | color ,green "[[:space:]]+$" |
at the end to show trailing spaces.
- legacy directory has old version of the files which have better alternatives at the moment and are there only for reference
- zz_own in filetypes does not mean much besides that if I wanted to look for them I'll find them easier
