<p>Someone not familiar with these companies might see that as a success. Those who are familiar know that both KDAB, as well as Qt are two-decade long supporters of KDE. As for the third contributor, I doubt it would know/use KDE software if you wouldn't work for them.</p>

<p>But KSyntaxHighlighting is a bit special. All other syntax highlighting engines I know are for the web (written in scripting languages), so our offering indeed fills a niche.</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>TASK DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/T10812">https://phabricator.kde.org/T10812</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>ngraham, cfeck<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>apol, jriddell, xyquadrat, jtamate, vkrause, lbeltrame, ltoscano, cfeck, aacid, Yakuake, Okular, Dolphin, Kate, Spectacle, Konsole, Gwenview, KDE PIM, KDE Games, KDE Applications, ngraham<br /></div>
