Hi, since we recently discussed editor support and syntax highlighting:

Pandoc can use definitions from Kate[1] for syntax highlighting in a code block via "--syntax-definition".

There’s also ConTeXt support (MkIV/LMTX):

https://kate-editor.org/syntax/data/syntax/context.xml

Apparently, it can switch contexts to Lua, XML, MetaPost etc.
But the list of commands is quite short.

In case the author (Philipp A.) is listening: Is this intentional (“not necessary, highlight everything that starts with a backslash”)? Otherwise it probably would make sense to read in the interface files (i-*.xml).

I can’t tell if it would make sense to support this syntax via a module (like scite and vim). What we have if probably enough for most of us.
