I got a problem to add a new language to gtksourceview (used by gedit).
I want to add the Django's template language and something does not work :
I am not able to make %} stop the syntactic coloring.
Here is a snippet :
<context id="dtl-block" end-at-line-end="true">
<start>{%</start>
<end>%}</end>
<include>
<context sub-pattern="0" where="start" style-ref="preprocessor"/>
<context sub-pattern="0" where="end" style-ref="preprocessor"/>
<context ref="string"/>
<context ref="chaine"/>
<context ref="keywords"/>
<context ref="filters"/>
<context ref="operators"/>
<context ref="variable"/>
</include>
</context>
This snippet color correctly my code, but it does not stop at %}. It continues coloring after %}, so there is something wrong.
I made a snippet which is working :
<context id="variable-block" end-at-line-end="true">
<start>{{</start>
<end>}}</end>
<include>
<context sub-pattern="0" where="start" style-ref="preprocessor"/>
<context sub-pattern="0" where="end" style-ref="preprocessor"/>
<context ref="variable"/>
</include>
</context>
It is working very well.
{{ and }} works, but %} does not.
I tried with html entities and with a backslash (\) and it does not work.
Does somebody know what could be the problem ?
Thanks.
I found the problem :
in another context, there was a %
in a regexp, so the %}
was not interpreted.
