Description
More+Less
present options with a (nice) highlighting so vim-man
should too, here are some observations about the default vim man.vim
syntax file.
- Default
man.vim
issues:- A lot of double hyphen options are not matched
- Options in Synopsis and other sections are not matched (surrounded by
[]
) - Options in the middle of other options description text are not matched
- Commas after options are included in the match
- (For implement this in
vim-man
) Take into count:- Options are denoted by one or tho hyphens
-
- If any alphanumerical symbol precedes the hyphen it's probably not an
Options but atwo-components
word - Possible characters in an Option:
Upper and lower case letters
,
numbers
,-
,_
,?
(See:Man man
for and example of the last one) - alone
-
or--
are commands too (common forread from stdin
)
- Options are denoted by one or tho hyphens
- There is no special cases for man sections (?)
I'd like to know if I miss something or if something here is wrong; if this is correct an appropriate syntax match
regex will do the job (?)
