Tal Einat added the comment: > A related request is to to syntax highlight field expressions in f strings. Related, but separate, and IMO not quite as urgent. I can commit to working on this issue (soft keywords), but I'll have to see where things stand once this is finished before moving

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Soft keywords are a huge nuisance for syntax highlighting as they need special case regexes and tests. Hard keywords are matched against complete words, regardless of whether the context is syntactically valid or not. If 'for' and 'else' were the only

E. Paine added the comment: Thanks for linking to the Lexical Analysis docs. Not quite sure how I missed this given it is directly below the normal keywords section. Given the distinction described there, it may instead be best for IDLE to highlight this as its own category (i.e. not
