TextMate support

This folder provides TextMate Grammar support. It is based on the HighlightJS grammar used in the documentation template for the site docs. This allows highlighting in an editor.

VisualStudio

For Visual Studio, copies of sub-folders of this folder can be placed into the user profile folder .vs/Extensions to enable syntax highlighting of the Kaleidoscope language files.

Note

For Windows the user profile is available in an environment variable. In PowerShell that is accessed as $env:userprofile. In classic CMD prompts it is %USERPROFILE%. Normally it is C:\Users\<UserName> but can vary depending on how your system is set up.

Example:

📁 %USERPROFILE%
└─📁 .vs
   └─📁 Extensions
      └─📁 Kaleidoscope
         └─📁 syntaxes
            └─📄 Kaleidoscope.plist

This will enable syntax highlighting for all Kaleidoscope files (.kls) loaded after this file is present (any editors without highlighting need to be closed and re-opened as the set of contributing highlighters is determined once at file load.)
