[TxMt] Theming help

[leif halvard silli]

Hi. Some questions w.r.t. getting themes to work as I prefer:


Firstly, the manual says [1]  that "markup.heading.2.html" can be used 
in a language grammar. And then subsequently one may use that as a 
selector in a Theme. I have tried to use the mentioned selector in a 
theme made entirely from scratch, but whatever color I add for that 
selector, nothing happens to the styling of the <h2> tags or anything. 
Do I need to update the language grammar for HTML in order to get it to 
work or what?


Secondly, Brilliance Black seems to be one of the richest themes 
arround, with colors for many languages. It has a HTML section. And 
below that it has a "markup" section. The markup selection has e.g. 
"markup.heading" and "markup.bold". I assumed that "markup.bold" would 
turn <b>text/</b> into bold face. But, no - doesn't happen. I have 
misunderstood something?


Thirdly: Ideally, what I would like to see was a theme were the /text/ 
changed styling, more than the tags/code around the text. But TextMate 
appears to only be able to have one color for text, namely that of the 
"Foreground" color. Am I right? I hope not. Put on an edge, I would much 
rather have a permant color for tags etc, but differing colors for text, 
depending of the context. Can TextMate do this? Or may I just forget it 
at once?


(I have used TextMate for a 2-3 years, but I only used the installed 
themes. And there are many things with it that I have not taken 
advantage of.)
