Bug Description

Binary package hint: gedit

Pascal language is not case-sensitive but gedit in Gnome 2.20 handles some Keywords like begin, end, function and so on as case-sensitive. For these keywords it only accepts the form with a capital letter at the beginning.

In Gnome 2.18 (Ubuntu 7.04) pascal was handled correct.

I found the reason for this behavior: There is a line missing in the pascal.lang file (in /usr/share/gtksourceview-2.0/language-specs/).

<default-regex-options case-sensitive="false"/>

Corrected file is attached.
