Sounds like you’re using the C++ “gets” which is for a file. It’s odd. Out of sheer curiosity, show us that bit of code? Check out this page: [http://www.scintilla.org/SciTEDoc.html](http://www.scintilla.org/SciTEDoc.html) “Language settings are determined from the file extension but this can be changed by selecting another language from the Language menu. The language menu can be changed with the menu.language property.” ---
