[Bf-committers] Syntax Highlighting for OSL - Question

[patrick boelens]

I thought about that, but it seemed weird and cumbersome having to always end your file names in .py or .osl before (correct) highlighting can occur. (Maybe it's just me being lazy but I never end in either extension when working in Blender.) Maybe we could have a combination of the two (keep the option, but be smart about it)?

For example:
- New file  -  syntax = Python
- Switch to "my_shader.osl"  -  syntax = OSL
- New file  -  syntax = OSL (persistent from previous file)
