Like many programmers, I use the following markers to document my code: # XXX # TODO # DEBUG (whereas the leading comment character depends on the respective language)
Can these markers be highlighted to make them more salient?
Not really. For C/C++/Java you can add/modify the keywords in the 'docComment' setting in filetypes.[c|cpp|java|...].
These keywords are highlighted in such filetypes in documetation comments, e.g. /** @todo something we should do */ the prefixed '@' sign is necessary.
But currently there is no generic solution for this.
There could be a plugin to do something like this, e.g. by setting an indicator on such words, like a green or yellow underline or something else.
