90946c5e9e syntax: nanorc: avoid colorizing #rgb codes as if they were comments
Demand that trailing comments (which are not really supported anyway)
have a space or tab after their hash mark.

3b5f650621 tweaks: use a color closer to the rest of the string, to reduce contrast
On my normal machine, 'peach' harmonizes nicely with 'brightgreen',
but on another there is a large, jarring contrast.

f757c4a512 syntaxes: colorize hex more strictly by using character class [:xdigit:]
In UTF-8 locales, the ranges A-F and a-f include several accented
characters beyond "ABCDEF" and "abcdef", such as the Croat č and ć.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61487.

Bug existed since the beginning of each of the syntaxes,
for the C syntax since version 1.3.6, commit 159bdfdc.

fab4d0afcb tweaks: reshuffle a coloring rule, to have related ones together

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.

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.

7bd68365ec syntaxes: avoid coloring "this\" as if it were a valid string
A backslash should not be allowed inside a quoted string unless
it is used to escape another character.

Bug existed since each of these syntaxes was introduced.

(Awk and Fortran do not know include files with names between
angled brackets, so those regexes are dropped in the bargain.)

485eb18d83 syntaxes: use one regex for coloring quoted strings, to avoid overlap
Quoted strings cannot start within another quoted string and end after
that other string has ended.  Therefore single-quoted and double-quoted
strings should (as much as possible) be colorized by a single rule, so
that overlapping colorations are avoided.

(This also fixes a double typo in the PHP syntax (\. --> \\.) that has
been there since the PHP syntax was added in 2008, commit 90ee8ee4.)

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61387.

Bug existed since each of these syntaxes was introduced,
the oldest ones around 2006, a few others around 2015.

e52c81f5db syntax: nanorc: improve the file-matching regex
The "\.?" part was pointless.  It says that the string "nanorc"
*might* be preceded with a period.  Sure, but if the period is
absent, then anything else may be there too, so the optional
period gives zero restriction.

The restriction should be: either the filename has the extension
".nanorc" OR the full filename is "nanorc".  So the "nanorc" part
must be preceded by either a period or a slash.

(However, in the times of commits 3dc0e23e and dc9c40a5, fifteen
and eighteen years ago, it was still the user-provided filename
that was matched against the regex, not the full-path filename.
The latter method arrived in commit ec8d51be, six years ago.)

d57bfc057f syntax: rust: do not colorize as string the text between two strings
Strings may not contain a double quote unless it is escaped.

Reference:
  https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/tokens.html#string-literals

(This will still not colorize multi-line strings with an unescaped
newline, will still colorize "this\" as if it were a valid string,
and will still miscolor things when there is another string after
the closing quote of a two-line string.  But those things can't
be helped -- line-based regexes cannot emulate a full parser.)

0dbe857ba2 syntaxes: undouble the backslash within bracket expressions
Within a bracket expression, the backslash is not special,
so it does not need to be escaped.

The double backslashes within brackets were found with:

  grep -o  '\[[^][]*\\\\[^][]*\]'  syntax{,/extra}/*rc

Also, incorporate the square brackets into some bracket expressions
by listing the closing bracket first, saving a separate regex for
those two brackets.

The rules assume that 'STOP' (for Perl) or EOT (for Ruby) is the
terminating string while it could be anything.  Also, the rules
don't take quotes nor backticks nor a tilde into account.

In short: these coloring rules are far too limited.

7b4a835df4 syntax: gentoo: remove some obsolete keywords and add some new ones
Removals:
  - All eblits were dropped from Gentoo years ago.
  - HDEPEND was never fully approved, superseded by BDEPEND.
  - Keywords 'dohard' and 'dosed' have been banned since EAPI 4:
    https://projects.gentoo.org/pms/5/pms.html#x1-130001r8
  - Several arches are dead.  For the currently supported list:
    https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/profiles/arch.list

Additions:
  - Two eapply functions replace the epatch functions, but epatch
    is still supported until EAPI 6 is banned.
  - Modern build systems (ninja and qmake5) have new functions.
  - EAPI 7 added more builtins: dostrip, get_libdir, ver_*
  - Highlight the cross-compiler boolean function.  (There are too
    many toolchain functions to add them all, but this one is very
    common and has a long name, so highlighting it is useful for
    catching typos early.)

9f8309fba8 help: use smaller triangles for the arrows
In Dejavu Sans Mono the old pointing triangles had a decent size,
but in Noto Mono and in Ubuntu Mono (fonts that handle combining
diacritics better) those triangles were massive, visually taking
up more than a single cell, overlapping the closing parenthesis
when they are displayed in the second column.  Not nice.

The new pointing small triangles look good in the Noto and Ubuntu
fonts, but are real tiny in Dejavu.  :|  Oh well, one can't have
everything.

(Other triangles are not an option, because they don't degrade to
actual arrows when on a Linux console.)

635977fe33 syntax: nanohelp: avoid colorizing M-) in (M-) and M-" in "M-"
Instead of quoting M- as 'M-', some translations use «M-» (Catalan),
(M-) (Croat), "M-" (Italian), „M-” (Romanian), or „М-“ (Serbian).
Those occurrences of M- nor its quotation marks should be colored.

Achieve this by excluding those quotation marks from the M- regex,
and then colorizing M-) and M-" only when at start of line (first
column of shortcuts) or when between parentheses (second column).
