No syntax highlighting in .jinja/.j2 files #2137

Open moonburnt opened 3 years ago

moonburnt commented 3 years ago

Description of the problem or steps to reproduce

Jinja documentation recommends adding .jinja extension to its templates (e.g instead of template.html, file would be template.html.jinja). And previously .j2 was used for the same purpose. However, after doing any of these, micro loses ability to highlight syntax in related files

Just formally micro has syntax highlighting for it https://github.com/zyedidia/micro/blob/master/runtime/syntax/jinja2.yaml

And it can be resolved by adding there:

detect:
    filename: "(\\.jinja$|\\.j2$)"

At least I think it should work
