It supports a whole slew of languages in terms of syntax highlighting.

I've been using geany almost exclusively for about 5 years.  It's great!  It is a very light weight IDE for all the features. Actually, I use it like an editor and not an IDE.  By default I have the 
top bar, bottom bar, and side windows hidden.
