Yeah I am likely in the weeds and the problem worked out another way. The reason I was wondering if you could target a sub-pattern with Keyword Pattern was that I had a list of keywords: variables, and a list of keywords: commands. It turns out a couple keywords appear in both lists.
I realized that I only care about the variables keywords in particular contexts, so a larger pattern. But I’d still like the keyword colored as a variable, the sub-pattern. Now with a clearer head I realize that doesn’t really make sense. So yeah, I got way way in the weeds and simplified what I was doing. > On Aug 26, 2021, at 9:09 AM, jj <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Christopher, > > For what I know Function Patterns use named subpatterns in order to capture > function names and ranges for the navigation bar Functions menu and for the > code folding. > > It is not clear to me what will be the use of keyword subpattern captures. > > If you don't find an answer to your question in the documentation, you should > send an mail to the BBEdit support team ([email protected]) with a clear > description of your question and what you intend to do, including examples, > expected results, etc. > > Codeless Language Modules documentation is available here: > https://www.barebones.com/support/develop/clm.html > https://www.barebones.com/support/technotes/language-module-changes.html > > Best regards, > > Jean > > >> On Thursday, August 26, 2021 at 8:47:40 AM UTC+2 Christopher Waterman wrote: >> Jean >> >> Again thanks for the help with BBLMRunColors.
