It would be great to post an image of what this looks like in a couple code examples. I've been working on this as well, primarily because I haven't seen a syntax that gets it right, usually it's rushed or sloppy, and some just really get the syntax wrong. with off false positives appearing all over.
- leorocky 12y agoI think the problem is also vim which doesn't have a really great way to do syntax highlighting. At least not an easy way. Highlighting is all in a single thread and blocks which makes it slow on large files and the regular expressions seem fragile. I think a better way to do syntax highlighting would involve a lexer and bison instead of regular expression hell.
- SmileyKeith 12y agoSurprisingly this file is pretty simple. The learning curve for writing syntax files is definitely something though.
- SmileyKeith 12y agoThanks for the feedback, I'll add some screenshots.
- SmileyKeith 12y agoDone!
- tendom 12y agoLooks good.
