Question about `support` scope (vs `constant` scope): Is it plan to explicit make a differentiation between the both?
Hello GitHub [light|dark] syntax theme generator,
From:
- qjebbs/vscode-plantuml#428
- github/linguist#5530
We have a question:
- Is it plan to explicit differentiate
supportscope colour fromconstantscope colour?
| TextMate scope(s) | CSS class | github-light colour | github-dark colour |
|---|---|---|---|
constant |
.pl.c1 | #005cc5 |
#c8e1ff |
support.class or support |
.pl-c1 | #005cc5 |
#c8e1ff |
Regards.
I wouldn't count on it. GitHub's syntax highlighting uses an extremely rudimentary colour palette compared to the richness of TextMate themes. This appears to be a design decision more than a technical limitation.
Moreover, the exact scope-colours are subject to change depending on the whims of GitHub's design team. FYI, you can see a full list of scopes with their current colours here.
