Hacking on zsh-syntax-highlighting itself
|
|
=========================================
|
|
|
|
This document includes information for people working on z-sy-h itself: on the
|
|
core driver (`zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh`), on the highlighters in the
|
|
distribution, and on the test suite. It does not target third-party
|
|
highlighter authors (although they may find it an interesting read).
|
|
|
|
The 'main' highlighter
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
The following function `pz` is useful when working on the `main` highlighting:
|
|
|
|
pq() {
|
|
(( $#argv )) || return 0
|
|
print -r -l -- ${(qqqq)argv}
|
|
}
|
|
pz() {
|
|
local arg
|
|
for arg; do
|
|
pq ${(z)arg}
|
|
done
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
It prints, for each argument, its token breakdown, similar to how the main
|
|
loop of the `main` highlighter sees it.
