This is a follow-up to this thread - I'm going to attempt add gmic as a syntax highlighting option for KDE Kate
After checking which syntax-highlighting works best for G’MIC. I think I have come closer to the answer of syntax-highlighting issue.
On KDE Kate, this is a text editor. There is syntax-highlighting for the J language. The thing that gets me is that it does a incredible job of finding nested while / if as well as it does a great job of getting merge lines and fill lines.
To demonstrate:
The issue comes with #@cli lines and #@gui lines as one can demonstrate here:
And of course, there is that ugly highlight for () and the lack of indication for {}.
Those are just three things to address with the J language, and then the syntax highlighting issue can be solved. I think all I have to do is to make a issue on KDE Kate for solving the very few issues left.
