Could you please provide a more complete test case? I can't seem to reproduce it here. > Support for comments without opening "/*" at the beginning of the file > is removed because people do not normally write comments backwards. At the moment vis only considers the currently visible text for syntax highlighting. The rule you removed is a hack to catch multiline comments even when their start marker "/*" has been scrolled off the screen. And yes the whole syntax hightlighting probably needs a redesign. At some point I should take a look how vim/sublime/other editors which supports a lot of languages configure their syntax highlighting and reuse/convert their rule set. However given the implementation complexity (~50 LOC without rules) of the current solution, it works suprisingly well (at least for C like languages) ... -- Marc André Tanner >< http://www.brain-dump.org/ >< GPG key: CF7D56C0
