Hey all,
A while back I posted to the group re: improved syntax highlighting in XCode
for MacRuby. It was suggested that I submit something to Apple.
Today, I got a follow up email from Apple saying that someone on their
engineering team is "investigating" the issue.
That's all the information I've got, but hopefully that means we'll see
better support for MacRuby in upcoming releases of XCode!
Also, I should mention this is the first response to a bug I've filed, so I
actually don't know how to interpret the significance of their response. Any
thoughts on that?
Here's to hoping!
Regards,
Alec
