Hi,
I discovered Sublime Text yesterday and it has a few features that I really like (and that are missing in other text editors).
So I want to extend it a bit and because I’m writing *.xys scripts most of the time (these belong to XYplorer, a very good
file manager with scripting capabilities) I’d like to add the necessary files to Sublime Text.
The first minor problem:
A part of the XYS.tmLanguage file:
[code]<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
fileTypes xys name XYS patterns name variable.xys match \$[A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9_]+ scopeName source.xys [/code]I’m currently using the Mac Classic color theme and it contains this entry:
<dict>
<key>name</key>
<string>Variable</string>
<key>scope</key>
<string>variable.language, variable.other</string>
<key>settings</key>
<dict>
<key>fontStyle</key>
<string>italic</string>
<key>foreground</key>
<string>#1209030</string>
</dict>
</dict>
I’ve read the documentation for “Scopes” and I hope I got it right.
What I expect to see: Every variable ($xxx) should have a brown text color and an italic font style but
none of the variables in a .xys script is colored in that way. I have a few more entries in tmLanguage
file and those are working fine.
It it a regex problem?
Second problem:
I’ve created a snippet, saved under “D:\Users\Highend\Tools\Sublime Text\Data\Packages\XYS\if.sublime-snippet”.
<snippet>
<description>Case Expression</description>
<content><![CDATA[
if(){
$
}
]]></content>
<tabTrigger>if</tabTrigger>
<scope>source.xys</scope>
</snippet>
If I type “if” I get the tooltip with e.g.: “if Case Expression” but hitting return or tab deletes the if and doesn’t
replace it with the full snippet expression.
Please bare with me, the learning curve of Sublime Text seems a bit steep for the beginner (especially if english isn’t your motherlanguage)…
Regards,
Highend
