Hi,

I thought about a different way to tackle this with a more "generic" 
approach:

We could:

1) Get the list of all files in the same dir that match the current 
basename with any extension

2) Get the syntax highlighting definition for each of these files (and 
our original one) via the matching KSyntaxHighlighting function

3) Then open the file that has the same definition than the original 
file

This should work for any language that has pairs of XX.foo XX.bar files.

Btw., I see you have taken care of the changes in OCaml Merlin ;=)

Nice!

I need to work on OCaml stuff at company, too.

Greetings
Christoph
