So, is it correct that the XML files are automatically generated from
the source code, and kept in sync with it? If so, how is that done? Or
the xml files are maintained by Wolfgang who knows context inside out
and has ways to keep track of additions (although some commands became
obsolete when we went mkiv, like those dealing with font encoding and
so) we're mostly talking about additions
are they manually curated? I'd be willing to contribute to make progress
on the MetaFun part.
ok, but let's first wait what Wolfgang says .. we probably first have to
check if we need to add some to the xml definitions
(btw, the lmt metapost commands i.e. the key/value macros fit in well in
the optional argument appeoach, the more low level ones more resemble
the low level context commands for which we have specific definitions)
Whatever you think is more appropriate... Provided that it can be parsed
automatically.
so what does vim expect? isn't there some kind of common format for lexers?
