SciTE lexer

I don't suppose since the Ruby for Windows installer has the option to
install SciTE that someone is working on improving the Ruby lexer? I
know that it sometimes highlights to the end of a line when it
shouldn't.

There is a much improved Ruby lexer that was written by Kaspar Schiess that
is going to be incorporated into an upcoming release of Scintilla and SciTE.
Once this has been done and released, it will be packaged into the one-click
installer.

Cool, I use the standalone version and will happily await the new SciTE.

Or jump to http://www.tua.ch/ruby/current.html and download the .tgz.
That includes SciTE.exe and dlls needed to get new syntax highlighting
today.
