If I understand you correctly, the end of the embedded section is simply the next '@@' start marker. So, change your end match to use a look-ahead:

end = '^(?=@@)';

Hi,

I have a small embedded mini-language that allows me to include HTML and CSS files inline inside the code.

The layout is something like this:

------ 8< ----- @@ filename.html

<div>....</div>

@@ styles.css ... css stuff ...

@@ other.html ... more html...

------ 8< -----

I'm using something like this:

           {       name = 'embedded.html';
                   begin = '^(@@)\s+(.+[.]html?)\s*$';
                   end = '^@@';
                   captures = {
                           1 = { name = 'embedded.marker'; };
                           2 = { name = 'embedded.filename'; };
                   };
                   patterns = ( { include = 'text.html'; } );
           },
           {       name = 'embedded.css';
                   begin = '^(@@)\s+(.+[.]css)\s*$';
                   end = '^@@';
                   captures = {
                           1 = { name = 'embedded.marker'; };
                           2 = { name = 'embedded.filename'; };
                   };
                   patterns = ( { include = 'text.css'; } );
           },

But the problem is that the "end" rule captures the @@ pair to it cannot be matched by the next block "begin".

If I add an extra @@ just before the second file, it all works fine.

Is there any trick to get around this?
