No, I'm not confused. I actively participate in Scintilla. Lexilla was
split off a few years ago.
I Ass-U-Me-d based on this
https://riverbankcomputing.com/software/qscintilla/intro
That you were using C++, not Python. If you are using Python, yes, you
are hosed.
If you are using C++, Scintilla itself has Qt support which will allow
you to use all of the current Lexers. If you don't want to deal with
Qt's 30+K deep bug database and "Everybody must buy a license"
definition of "OpenSource" you can also use CsScintilla which allows you
to use all of the current Lexilla lexers. I use them in RedDiamond.
