I'm trying to put together a grammar and having a hard time getting the pattern matching right.
The line I'm interested in will be in the following format--
KW: [any text except a percentage sign can go in here] % (fold)
What I want to do is apply the scope comment.line.percentage from the % sign to the end of the line, and variable.notes to everything in between KW: and the percent sign. I also want to be able to use Markdown-style italics within the variable.notes section.
Here is the patterns block as I have constructed it thus far:
patterns = ( { name = 'comment.line.percentage'; match = '%.*$'; }, { begin = '^KW:'; end = '% (fold)|$'; patterns = ( { name = 'markup.italic.notes.variable'; match = '*[^*]+?*'; }, ); contentName = 'variable.notes'; }, { name = 'markup.italic.notes'; match = '*[^*]+?*'; }, );
This does everything correctly except the % (fold) only acquires the scope of the whole grammar and not the comment scope. Anything following a percentage sign on a line that doesn't begin with KW: is matched fine.
Any help on how to construct the grammar to match the end of this line would be appreciated!
