Research direction
Reproduce the reported case in the MagicPython syntax highlighter using print(42and 2) in VS Code 1.67. Inspect the Python grammar responsible for numeric literals, names, and flow-control keywords; done means 42 is constant.numeric.dec.python and and is keyword.control.flow.python, without the illegal-name scope.

Description
-
Editor name and version: VS Code 1.67

Platform: all
-
Color scheme: all

MagicPython version: commit c9b3409deb69acec31bbf7913830e93a046b30cc

A sreenshot:

-
5-10 lines of surrounding code:
print(42and 2)
in 42and 2, a valid python code, 42and is marked as invalid.illegal.name.python
42 should be marked as constant.numeric.dec.python and and should be marked as keyword.control.flow.python.
PyCharm is able to parse it correctly:
