Any help on why syntax highlighting works in the Windows version but not on the Linux version? Am I missing something in my Linux Mint 17.2?

It works on my Ubuntu 12.04. Did you activate it in the Edit/Preferences/Editor menu?

Damn - I didn't realise that OpenSCAD could even do that (I don't use it on Windows...)

Works nicely when it's turned on.

I'll check that I didn't realize it had to be turned on since it was on by default in Windows.
