Typescript: uses of special

[hbarcelos]

I'm using typescript-vim.

I noticed that Nord won't properly handle the Special group.

For example, try..catch blocks are marked by the plugin as Special.

However, the result is not what one should expect:

Can you check if 1bd44ade46f3fa414c86bd5688f0977677bbb769 solved this problem?

Thank you for your patience! 🙏🏼 It‘s been a while since I had free time to focus more on Nord, and my open source projects in general, and invest time in this issue due to work-life balance.

I recently published the first “Northern Post — The state and roadmap of Nord“ announcement which includes all details about the plans and future of the Nord project, including the goal of catching up with the backlog. This issue is part of the backlog and therefore I want to triage and process it to get one step closer to a “clean state“. Read the announcement about reaching the “clean“ contribution triage state in Nord‘s discussions for more details about the goal.

Therefore it has been added for triage in the central and single-source-of-truth project board that is also described in more detail in the roadmap announcement.

@hbarcelos Since there has been some time without further communication, it would be great if you could quickly give some feedback if the changes of #208 that @jvoisin also mentioned helped to improve the highlighting in the meantime.

Hey, sorry for the delay. I've moved away from Nord a couple of years ago and I'm not currently using TypeScript on a day-to-day basis, so I might not be able to help validating the changes.

I might be able to install Vim + Nord on a different machine to help testing it in a couple of days.
