Someone changed my wiki entry so the filetype is YAML instead of JavaScript[1]. Set it back to JavaScript and set the `[styling]` section back to `[styling=C]`, removing the partial set of styles added in that change and highlighting should work perfect (after all, isn't JSON valid JavaScript syntax?). You can check "Old Revisions" on the wiki to see the original entry and the additions later on.
Is the [1] in "instead of JavaScript[1]" significant?
I changed filetypes.JSON.conf to:
[styling=C] default=default number=number string=string word=word identifier=identifier,bold
[keywords] primary=true false null
[settings] extension=json lexer_filetype=Javascript comment_single=# comment_use_indent=true
[indentation] width=2 # 0 is spaces, 1 is tabs, 2 is tab & spaces type=0
Syntax highlighting is still not so colourful: Names are bold black and values are normal black unless they are numbers, in which case they are green.
Highlighting of matching '[' and '{' braces works fine after rebooting my PC.
Setting the filetype to Javascript (Document -> Set Filetype -> Scripting Languages -> Javascript) results in a more colourful display, but without any differentiation between names and values.
Is there any way of customizing this without launching a new career?
Please update the wiki if you find it's incorrect.
How do I do that?
Thanks,
