Smalltalk language not recognized
The code in GNU Smalltalk is being recognized mistakenly as C/C++.
To recognize it, look for a lot of keywords matching [a-z][a-zA-Z0-9_]+:
.
The rules to parse it are extremely easy: the extension is *.st
, the comments are delimited by double quotes, strings are delimited by single quotes and do not support escaping (i.e. '\' is a one-character string), and a $ eats the following character whatever it is (e.g. $\ is a two-character sequence, and $' does not require a matching single-quote).
Hi bonzini,
Yes, we don't have Smalltalk support yet. It shouldn't be too difficult. We have a growing pile of language parsing features to implement -- next time we crack open the parser (which should be soon), we'll get Smalltalk in.
