@NiLuJe This "unclear" I don't understand. The code is for PySide 2.
I tested it in windows and Linux with whatever version I could find (5.13.2 in windows, can't remember the Linux version)
I did upload the ui files on GitHub although the point was to do everything by script (I had to copy them manually)
I don't use the original images in the building process (use the
images_rc.py), so I have to copy them by hand and check at every build if something is changed.
Don't like it, but if its essential, I guess I could do it..

Is 27Mb a big package? The PySide2 version I build once to test, was a lot bigger..

it would be awesome to port the code to Qt5.7 (the last one that runs on XP), that way the app could be targeted for any kind of OS without too much trouble.

The current release version
does run on XP.
Actually, this is the reason I keep using Python 2.7
Is there a reason to use Pyside 2 (or Qt5), any specific advantage?
As it is, KOHighlights runs on all windows versions (including XP - x86/x64), all Linux distributions that are compatible with Ubuntu (from v16 and up - x64) and every system that has Python 2/PySide or Python 3/PySide 2.
What's missing, are releases for MacOS and the rest of the Linux distributions.
Is there anything I can do about that?
I know almost nothing about these platforms (I usually use Virtual Images).
Any help is appreciated..
Phew, not used to such big posts..
