Separate regular comments from Doc Strings #147

Closed nickeb96 closed 6 months ago

nickeb96 commented 2 years ago

It would be great if documentation comments made with ///, //!, etc. were matched to different nodes than normal comments. I'd like to be able treat them separately when doing syntax highlighting.

Bump

Is this project still being maintained?

aryx commented 2 years ago

it's maintained, but there's not much activity.

We accept PRs to fix issues though :)

In a similar vein, I'd like to be able to syntax highlight examples in doc strings. This is a feature of other highlighters. Is such a thing possible with tree-sitter?

See #128 which merges successive doc comments, which it seems would be a precondition to adding rust embeds for fenced code blocks in documentation.

This distinction will be done in Emacs. See also the duplicate issue https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-rust/issues/175.
