Include syntax script with Vim? #922

Open chrisbra opened 7 years ago

chrisbra commented 7 years ago

As discussed von vim/vim#1047 The current syntax script maintainer is known to be unresponsive and hasn't been updated in years. So if you'd like to contribute please go ahead (see the comment on the vim issue how to proceed). Thanks!

What about just replacing the built in plugin with this one?

This particular project also suffers from a mostly unresponsive creator, although he did set a few of us up as contributors and we keep it maintained.

I am fine with that as well, if this project isn't too heavy.

I think it is kind of good having a simple syntax script in vim/vim, like currently one can write jsx and not need a plugin to parse the nested xml to not break everything below it. the one here is way more advanced but will obviously not understand crazy javascript transpilations (except flow ) and will more likely need maintenance. isn't there several pull requests to add template string support, what brought this subject up, at the vim repo?

this patch looks good: https://github.com/vim/vim/pull/1022

a non-maintained syntax file, for which PR are opened. But since there is no maintainer anymore we are looking for new maintainers
