Kamelon is based on the syntax highlighting and code folding algorithms used in the Kate texteditor of the KDE desktop. It replaces and supercedes Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate.
Instead of using plugin modules it loads Kate’s syntax highlight definition xml files directly. That makes development and testing a lot easier. It also opens up a new field of applications like creating your own highlight definitions to neatly format your reports. Tons of bugs have been removed. Testing has been redesigned. It runs about four times faster than version 0.10 and is up to spec with the latest Kate highlight definitions.
