Buggood first issuesyntax:command-word

説明

It is possible to write a loop using a different syntax like:

while (( i++ < 10 )) { echo i is $i }

Issue:

The syntax highlighting fails on the { echo i is $i } part. Has this been a conscious decision made in the past? If not is it possible to fix this?

技術スタック: shell

Issue 種別: bug
難度: 3
推定時間: half day
活動状況: stale
明確さ: clear
前提条件: zshregexsyntax highlighting plugin internals
初心者向け度: 35
調査方針: Investigate the zsh syntax highlighting codebase, specifically the highlighters for builtin commands. The issue reports that 'while {....} {....}' syntax is not recognized. Look at the 'main' highlighter or the 'zle' highlighter for case patterns. Review comments in the issue for suggested approaches, such as modifying regex patterns to match the short loop syntax. No linked PRs, so propose to compare with how 'if' or 'for' short syntax is handled.
