Hi Danielo Apologies, I missed your original post.
It sounds like you are dividing the displayed text up into lines and then want to independently apply syntax highlighting to each line. I wouldn't have expected that to work because of the problem you found with multiline comments. I don't think there's much choice but to highlight the entire codeblock first, and then do your processing to convert it into individual lines. Now that your hacking on highlight.js it may be useful to engage with the author and find out if there's a recommended approach for what you're trying to achieve.
