Hi,

Seems you might be confused with the Scintilla project and the Lexilla
project. Scintilla is the editor as we all know about, and Lexilla [1] is the
standalone project for the lexers that can be used for the (original)
Scintilla project.

[1]: https://www.scintilla.org/Lexilla.html

The Lexilla project contains a lot of available lexer than currently
QSciScintilla have provided, the Lexilla project contains lexer for
a lot of popular programming languages or markups, like
Rust, LaTeX, GDScript, PowerShell, NSIS/Inno and so on. It also
offers a factory-style API to create lexer so it can be easy to extend
lexer support. So my original purpose is to see if and how I can
use the Lexilla project together with the QSciScintilla.
