After a lot of reading the documentation on textmate language bundles, grammar and scopes and regular expressions, I (just|finally) began making my own bundle for the cheetah templating language. My first post on this list is the following question:

How can I name the scope from when I include an other language in my language bundle? 

To explain this a bit:

My quest comes forth out of an esthetic desire to color the background of embedded html in the cheetah template, just like the "Embedded source" scope 'text source, string.unquoted' can colorize the embedded javascript or css in a html document.

In my cheetah language grammar I have a pattern:

{ name = 'source.embedded.html';

include = 'text.html.basic';

},

But in the document, the scope (ctrl shft P) just says "source.cheetah", or "source.cheetah meta.tag.structure.any.html" when my caret is within a html tag. I don't see anything of that name 'source.embedded.html' reflected in the scope.

Is it possible to give an embedded (or included) language an extra scope layer name, so I can use that in a theme?

I tried 'source.cheetah source.embedded.html' but that didn't do anything. For now I use 'source.cheetah meta', but that means I am missing a lot of non-cheetah-html stuff, like html comments, or (in html) embedded css or javascript.

I hope that my question is somewhat clear.

thnx
