Apologies as I'm not honestly sure how to ask this question, but here's what I'm trying to figure out:
I'm trying to write a VSCode Textmate Grammar-based language for VSCode, and having a heck of a time figuring out the regex implementation differences.
I found that VSCode uses its own mod of textMate grammars and directly pulls Oniguruma via a dedicated binding here. This is updated, but not frequently. It's at 6.9.8 right now, which is really only .1 out of latest.
So Ruby and PHP both use Oniguruma, but they tend to be a lot more further back in versions. https://rubular.com/ uses Ruby 2.5.9., which I believe has version of Oniguruma v6.1.3.- PCRE is in the ballpark, but it's got enough differences to be problematic.
I'd like to see a raw version of Oni directly implemented, but selfishly I'd like to see the most compatible with the VSCode implementation. Is this even a flavor request or does it need to be some kind of implementation through an intermediary?
