Basic syntax highlighting support for Jevko in various environments.
Visual Studio Code
The most basic possible syntax highlighting for Jevko that works in Visual Studio Code.
See this repository.
KatePart Syntax Highlight System
The most basic possible syntax highlighting for Jevko that works with the KatePart Syntax Highlight System is provided by this file:
It can be used for example to highlight Jevko syntax in Markdown with pandoc, e.g.:
pandoc -f markdown --syntax-definition=jevko-katepart.xml file.md -s > out.html
To use, copy the file to a location of your choice and direct your tool to it (e.g. as shown above).

Known Issues
There is an unfixable bug in all line-oriented syntax highlighting environments
where only the lines that contain an opening bracket [ in Jevko prefixes are
properly highlighted.
Other lines look the same as suffixes.
Here is an illustration:
In these environments the bug is impossible to workaround -- the fundamental problem is the limitation of these environments which precludes defining tokens that span multiple lines. For properly highlighting Jevko this is not sufficient -- Jevko is not a line-oriented syntax.
The known line-oriented enviroments are:
- Visual Studio Code -- basic syntax highlighting via TextMate grammars
- KatePart Syntax Highlight System
Known environments that don't suffer from this limitation:
- Visual Studio Code -- semantic highlighting
- CodeMirror 6
