Restructure syntax highlighting #44

Open evanp opened 6 years ago

evanp commented 6 years ago

Our syntax highlighting is kind of a mess. I'd like to get it so we have the following elements available for styling:

x ... done task appears as a comment
creation date
completion date
(A) priority
+Project
@Context
description plain text
due:yyyy-mm-dd due date
t:yyyy-mm-dd start date
key:value key-value metadata pairs

I can see adding other special handling for well-known key-value pairs, but for now this should probably work well.
