(On the subject of syntax highlighting languages embedded in other languages)
I frequently write (bash) shell scripts with embedded AWK scripts, and I've found the awkembed.vim script quite useful. I have it installed at: ~/.vim/after/syntax/sh/awkembed.vim And it works quite well. Now, I would like to extend the idea beyond the set of "shell" and "awk". There are, obviously, two variables here: The enclosing language and the embedded language. As far as I can tell (based on a little Googoling) this has only been done for the one specific combination: shell & awk. Note: :help sh-embed Specifically, I have an Expect script with embedded AWK. How hard is it going to be to get this to work? I took a look at the awkembed.vim script - it's mostly greek to me, although I was able to modify it slightly because my awk has a different name than the one assumed by the script. It'd be nice if someone could tell me either a quick way to make a script to do what I want - or to tell me it can't be done... -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
