Trying to understand the Tree Sitter -- Missing Definitions Issue #46

Closed jeff-hykin closed 1 year ago

jeff-hykin commented 1 year ago

Given I didn't see a $.comment in the grammar.js, I did a global search, and shockingly found nothing. Not only that but many other definitions like $._bl are also completely missing as far as I can tell, even after pulling the submodules to see if they were somehow hacked into the tree-sitter code itself.

Could one of the maintainers point me in the right direction for finding where these definitions are coming from? I'm trying to learn how to handle indentation-based languages with the tree sitter.
