Hi I'd like to fontify Ansys keywords. The solver accepts unique short forms of the command keywords, the rest is ignored. For example the uniqe part of `/filname' is `/fil' and I'd like to fontify /fil and /filn and /filna and /filnam and /filname and as well. The only idea I got so far is to do it in 5 separate font-lock statements: \\(/fil\\) 1 font-lock... /fil\\(n\\) 1 fon... /filn\\(a\\) 1 ... /filna\\(m\\) 1 ... /filnam\\(e\\) 1 ...
Why are you grouping and highlighting either "/fil" or the last letter?
Very ugly and inefficient, isn't it? Originally I thought that something like this /fil\\(n\\|na\\|nam\\|name\\) would work but rexexp-bulider doesn't show any matches for the complementing alternatives.
"/fil\\(n\\(a\\(me?\\)?\\)?\\)?\\>" 0 font-lock... -- Kevin
