 |
|
I have put together my own syntax highlighting for ahk in vim.
It solves some problems with previous schemes:
Weibull: didn't get labels
Savage: would highlight what you were currently typing, then change the highlighting when moving out.
Features
Examples:
Isense
activeGoto
In a Nutshell:
Built-in finctions are blue
User defined functions are green
Autohotkey variables are orange
Labels are red (return too; makes it easy to find subs scopes)
GUI commands, others, are brown
If you are used to PSPad, you'll find at home.
The syntax file contains a very detailed list of ahk symbol types; each one could be colored differently if anyone wanted to. Here's the list:
| Code: | hi def link ahkKeyword Special
hi def link ahkEscape Special
hi def link ahkComment Comment
hi def link ahkStatement Conditional
hi def link ahkFunction Keyword
hi def link ahkDirective PreProc "sent keys
hi def link ahkLabel Label
hi def link ahkKey Special
hi def link ahkVariable Constant "this is anything enclosed in %%
hi def link ahkNewFunction Function
hi def link ahkBuiltinVariable Macro
hi def link ahkString String
hi def link ahkScope Type
hi def link ahkOtherCommands Typedef
hi def link ahkRelative ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkContinuation ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkPriority ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkWinTitle ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkSetFormatFamily ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkLogicOperators ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkWingetFamily ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkScopes ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkTimeUnits ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkLoop ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkExitReasons ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkMenuCommand ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkGUIcontrol ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkListView ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkGeneralGUI ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkHotkeyCommand ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkThread ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkTransformCommand ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkButtons ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkOn ahkOtherCommands
hi def link ahkRegistry ahkOtherCommands

It's not perfect; sometimes it misses code inside parentheses, for example. Also, when you call a built-in function thisWay(), it will highlight it as an user defined function.
All in All, this might be the most detailed highlighting scheme for any editor (at least of those I have tried).
Everything can be edited of course.
Here are some sample highlightings:
Sample 1: lots of functions. ISense code, majkinetor
Sample 2: active Goto by toralf
Credits
Credit goes to savage and Weibull, who created the versions I used.
Also, I used a function list from the PSPad installer by Toralf.
Last, the colors are inspired by Rajat's PSPad colors in that same installer.
How to install
Download syntax and colors from the vim website, and follow instructions there. |

Thank you very much! How can I highlight the "strings"? |

| just add a mapping at the bottom of the file for string to one of the vim 'highlighting types'. Copy/paste from the exisiting ones. |
