Improve it (just small changes are needed)

[Naereen]

Hi! Thanks for this extension!

Could it be possible to improve it, to support some syntax that are not yet supported?

• from ... cimport ... the cimport should be colored as import
• cdef [type] variable cdef should be colored as keyword
• cdef function same
• in def/cdef function definitions, types before variable names should be correctly colored: def test(float x, float y) should color flat

Thanks in advance (if you can fix this)

Hi, the grammar was just copyed from https://github.com/MagicStack/MagicPython. But I have no time to improve it recently, also sorry for the delayed reply.

Hi, No problem. Do you think we could try to improve it?

• We should work on MagicPython file grammars/src/MagicPython.syntax.yaml, not on the generated Cython.tmLanguage.
• Here is a first proposal to fix at least the cdef and cimport issues, https://github.com/guyskk/language-cython-for-vscode/pull/2. See this screenshot for example (before / after):

That's very basic, but it's almost enough for me.

There are some keywords need to be highlighted: cppclass, extern, namespace, void, api, public, const. These keywords are all related to interop with C/C++ code. Hope these could be added!~

And also highlighting for C/C++ types are missing: double, short, long, char, struct, unsigned
