Benno Schulenberg c70e6919c2 syntaxes: mention the original author of most of the syntax files
The names of the authors were retrieved from:

  git log -p --follow  syntax/<name>.nanorc

and from:

  git log -p --follow --all --  doc/nanorc.sample

For some files the original author is unclear, or
the file is/was too small to mention an author for.

Jaroslav Fowkes abdf069ce3 syntax: fortran: fix a typo (a missing backslash)
The typo prevented several keywords from getting colorized.

This addresses https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?10459.

Bug existed since version 2.1.6, commit 513157df,
since the Fortran syntax was introduced.

Benno Schulenberg 02dd0b4ed5 options: require --colonparsing/-@ to parse colon+number after a filename
Stop doing colon parsing by default, to avoid surprises and frustration
for users that have filenames that end in a colon plus digits.

The equivalent rcfile option is, of course, 'set colonparsing'.

Using +1, or similar, before the filename disables any colon parsing
and the filename is taken as is.

Benno Schulenberg c02aec557c syntax: makefile, sh: recognize also a fresh Makefile and fresh .profile
When opening a nonexistent file with nano, it likely consists of only a
name without any path component, and thus without any slash.  So when a
file regex checks for a slash, it should check also for start-of-string.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65591.

Problem existed for the Makefile since version 2.9.8, commit 22663f8a,
and for .profile since version 3.0, commit 4a268678 (but earlier, nano
did not recognize .profile files at all).

Benno Schulenberg f1a04f780a syntax: javascript: recognize also the .mjs extension
The V8 JavaScript-engine developers recommend using this extension:

Also, add the fairly new "JavaScript source" as magic description.

This fulfills https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65334.

Benno Schulenberg 7c174a1a25 syntax: c: require a preceding blank when a line comment contains a quote

Reported-by: Yonut Smith <deanlast3@gmail.com>

Problem has existed for more than twenty years, at least since support
for multine-line regexes was added in commit 6c1e6612 in 2002.

Benno Schulenberg 266ed0612f syntax: gentoo: remove file -- Gentoo itself will have to handle it
The file contained two syntaxes (each of them fairly large) that are
useful only for Gentoo users.  I don't think the file should have been
distributed with nano ever, as the syntaxes are just a dead weight for
the users of all other distributions.

Benno Schulenberg 44836e77be syntax: nanorc: colorize a trailing comment when it begins with non-hex
That is: colorize text after a blank-plus-hash as a comment when there
is at least one non-hexadecimal character among the first three.

This relaxes the demand that a trailing comment should have a blank
after the hash too, as implemented by commit 90946c5e two weeks ago.

Benno Schulenberg d6f101daef syntax: sql: colorize keywords regardless of case, and tweak the colors
Make types a bluish green, for more contrast with strings, so that the
latter can be made greener, for more contrast with the yellow keywords.
Make the main keywords bluer and less bright, and unbold and soften the
yellow ones.  Soften the comments too.

Benno Schulenberg f2c9aed16c syntax: sql: remove alien stuff -- it was copied mostly from ruby syntax
Regular expressions in SQL are not written between // or %r{},
strings are not written between <> or %Q{} or anything similar,
and comments do not start with # -- and officially not with //
either, but some dialects seem to allow it.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61381.

Bug existed since version 2.4.2, since the SQL syntax was included.

Benno Schulenberg 27aff84f74 syntax: nanorc: paint arguments of 'include' and 'extendsyntax' specially
The path after 'include' is not a regex and does not need to be quoted;
when it's unquoted, colorize it specially, instead of leaving it red.

The syntax name after 'extendsyntax' should be brightgreen, like after
'syntax', but it's better that the subsequent commands have their own
special color.

Benno Schulenberg d9e42cb274 syntax: nanorc: require whitespace before the start= and end= keywords
Also, drop the unneeded and mistaken 'end=' in the first regex, as
a coloring rule with just end="something" is not valid.  And drop
the requirement for having trailing whitespace or nothing at all,
as it does not constitute a useful restriction.

Also, fold two regexes together, for economy.
2021-11-03 17:33:45 +01:00
Benno Schulenberg 4d9be13316 syntax: nanorc: add 'execute' menu for unbind, and drop a bad constraint
The coloring rule for 'unbind' still checked for the old 'extcmd' and
'externalcmd' menu names.  And not coloring binds and unbinds as valid
when followed by something other than a comment was overrestrictive,
because the bind or unbind command would work just fine.

(Nano silently allows trailing garbage on any line without a regex.)

Also, take the opportunity to order the menu names in the bind and
unbind rules in the same way.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61419,
and fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61420.

First bug existed since version 5.0, commit d9106abf.
