colorization of tab character "\t" in string does not work properly #639

Closed bernd4 closed 1 year ago

bernd4 commented 1 year ago

Hello,

Please check this link. https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/185246

The colorization of escaped special characters in strings is acting funny. Below is an exercise from the learn.microsoft as example code.

The lighter orange color doesn't render consistantly.

Sorry to make you move your issue again @bernd4 I think @RedCMD missed the "C#" tag. I would move the issue myself, but I'm actually not sure what the upstream source for C# is.

@alexr00 probably knows though.

Also, while you're here Alex, I just wanted to give you a heads up that I temporarily switched better-cpp to GPLv3. I know that's not the most exciting thing to hear, and I don't know if I'm going to keep it under GPLv3. I just had some changes and wanted some more time to consider it before publishing the changes with a more permissive license. I'll @ you in a issue if I change it back to MIT or something simlar. My other syntaxes are all still MIT and I plan to keep them under MIT, its just C++ at the moment.

@bernd4 I moved the issue for you here: https://github.com/dotnet/csharp-tmLanguage/issues/275

@jeff-hykin thank you for the heads up. I will freeze our updating of your C++ grammar.
