Release Notes
Note to self: test more.

If anyone is interested in an ACE editor mode, let me know.
Release Notes
Updated because matching scopes to Pine Editor more closely, and looks good across hundreds of themes in sync with other code languages.
Release Notes
Fixed a few hidden bugs, got rid of any overlaps, went completist on all current built ins.

If you use the "tomorrow night" themes it is nostalgia for the old pine editor.


It also highlights markdown comment code (basics), and with a //``` tag, will highlight your source code or embedded pine script in comments ( good for building markdown ++ hovers for libraries)
Release Notes
2024 October

Enormous update, thanks Frizz as well.

Too many fixes and updates to mention all.

BUT! I solved a long standing problem with strings highlighting correctly if correct syntax only, so that it doesn't go wild.

Release Notes
Huge update.. faster too. far more detailed for types, methods, udts, maps... loads.. many hours hand coding regex.. many regexes. all the regexes... bug finding.. like wreck it ralph.. climb the tower, fight more bugs....
Release Notes
Fed up, i fully finished typing syntax everywhere in detail for map/ .new<...>, etc. i THINK it is done-ish up to date.

I hope Tradingview catches the string syntax here and implements it =).
