Monaco Editor Playground Code
// The Monaco Editor can be easily created, given an
// empty container and an options literal.
// Two members of the literal are "value" and "language".
// The editor takes the full size of its container.
monaco.editor.create(document.getElementById('container'), {
value: "void f() { if (a and not b) { } }",
language: 'cpp'
});
Reproduction Steps
No response
Actual (Problematic) Behavior
When viewing C++ code and using the basic highlighting the alternate spellings for keywords like and, or, etc. are not properly highlighted. The C++ standard has had these keywords since C++98 (see also [lex.key]/2).
Not having such keywords highlighted actively hurts code review.
Expected Behavior
The alternative spellings are highlighted.
Additional Context
See also src/basic-languages/cpp/cpp.ts where the spellings are missing.
