Dear List,
Well, it has been more than a week now since our feature request to bug-bash
list. So far, we have not had a single reaction. So, obviously, Bash developers
are not that interested in the requested feature.
We could find out where and how Bash reads the characters it gets fed. From
there we could just pass the current line - including the carachters just read
- to a program such as "GNU source-highlight". This program would add syntax
coloring to the current line. The syntax colored result could then be written
back to Bash command line. Syntax coloring by Vim might be useful as an
alternative for "GNU source-highlight".
This would color the current line. However, it would not underline any partial
commands, syntax or file names. For this we would probably have to interface
with the completion library.
However, given my very basic C programming skills, I will not be the one to
lead this project.
Best wishes,
Guido
