Hi,
in ST3 some regexp expressions in an Tcl script are not highlighted properly. For example:
set check1 [regexp {^’(.){0,32}’$} $param]
set check2 [regexp {[*?|"<>:/\]+} $param]
The problems are caused by the ’ and " signs. In ST2 everything works properly.
Have you tried with the latest TCL syntax definition? I believe it has been updated since the last ST release
you can check the readme for how to update your TCL package from the repo: https://github.com/sublimehq/Packages/blob/master/README.md
Generally the example you provided worked okay in the latest version, although the regexp string highlighting was termination after the first } in your first example. I’ve fixed in in the Packages repo.
If you run into any further errors, please open an issue so we can get it resolved.
Indeed, the new Tcl package solves the problem in ST3. It’s weird though that the old Tcl package performed well under ST2 but not under ST3.
Thanks!
Here is another bug in the syntax highlighting of regexp command:
regexp -inline -all {%[a-zA-Z_]*%} “whatever”
the -inline option appears in green (string) instead of white (option).
With:
regexp -all -inline {%[a-zA-Z_]*%} “whatever”
the -all option appears in green (string) instead of white (option).
Could you report the issues at https://github.com/sublimehq/Packages/issues? it is an easier interface for me to keep track of todo items. Here on the forum it is easy to get lost.
