Add more packages to syntax highlighting section #5

Closed clemera closed 3 years ago

clemera commented 3 years ago

I added some more packages for syntax highlighting. Some of them aren't really syntax highlighting and could be describe more generally as visual enhancements so I adjusted the section name as well.

I'm not 100% positive we should put stuff that isn't Elisp-specific in that list, otherwise it could go on and on.

For easy-escape and highlight-function-calls there is no doubt they can belong here.

As for paren-face and page-break-lines, they are more generic. Putting them we'd also have to put rainbow-delimiters, rainbow-identifiers, form-feed ...

Maybe should we list them at the beginning as a list of Honorable mention (there's already highlight-defined here) instead of giving them a full-fledged sub-section.

What is your feeling about that ?

I agree that considering the right scope is important, I moved the more generic packages to the "Honorable mention" listing.
