Comment #2 on issue 98 by gwern0: Integrate highlighting-kate
http://code.google.com/p/yi-editor/issues/detail?id=98
JPB: even if it doesn't support incremental highlighting, it could still be
useful.
How? Well, imagine a user opens up a MediaWiki file, or a PHP file, or a
Nasm file
(or any of the many other formats highlighting-kate provides but yi
doesn't). Why
couldn't the mode enter a loop, where say, every 10 keystrokes, while the
user isn't
typing anything, the mode calls the 'highlight' function on the buffer?
Speed isn't really an issue here if the user isn't doing anything; even a
very large
312k file is parsed in about 4seconds, and more normal sized files in
tenths of seconds.
