Hey, is there a way to deactivate all styles for one highlighter without setting everysingle one of them to 'none'? I'd like to activate only some and not all!?

Greetings

No.

Going forward, however, we could namespace styles, so the foo highlighter's styles would all be named foo:… (and existing names would be continue to be accepted for compatibility). That would enable the above request by iterating ${(k)ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES[(I)…]}. WDYT, all?

How'd this interact with themes?

Just curious, in your configuration, what styles didn't you set tonone? Matthew has proposed a similar setup and I wonder how closely his proposal matches your use.

[mejo13]

only a few, i'll build up on that. currently active are {single,double}-hyphen-option, {single,double}-quoted-argument{-unclosed}, redirection.

bad math expression: operand expected at `/usr/local...'

Probably missing a typeset -A ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES.
