Hello people! I'm trying to customize a theme and i've some question for you:
1)is it possible to set a custom color for elements such \n in a string?
for example s = "hi pal\n", 'hi pal' have to be black, '\n' have to be green.
2)Is it possible to define a color only for user defined identifiers?
3)what "string_1, string_2, ..., string_4" are for? what's the difference? where i can find some documentation about it? same for identifier_x and keyword_x
Thanks

These are to totally dependent on the lexer for a given language. I believe for example, PHP/HTML lexer can highlight the identifier in "abc $foo 123" differently, but there's no universal support for such things.

Unsurprisingly, they're for languages that have more than one type of string literal, identifier, or keyword, etc. If you look at Perl filetype you'll see where this could be best used (although it mostly isn't yet).
