IPL Highlighting

VS Code syntax highlighting for IPL

Find it on the Marketplace

Features

Syntax highlighting for IPL source files using a TextMate grammar.
Lightweight and dependency-free — the grammar is included in this repository under syntaxes/ipl.tmLanguage.json.

Install from the Visual Studio Marketplace (link above), or install the extension VSIX built from this repo.

To run and test the extension locally:

Open this repository in Visual Studio Code.
Press F5 (Run Extension) to launch an Extension Development Host window with the grammar available.
Open an IPL file in the host window to verify highlighting.

If you add or update the grammar in syntaxes/ipl.tmLanguage.json, reload the Extension Development Host to see changes.

Contributions are welcome. Good first steps:

Open an issue for feature requests or bugs.
For changes to the grammar, edit syntaxes/ipl.tmLanguage.json and test using the Extension Development Host (F5).
Send a pull request describing the change and a short test case (sample IPL snippet) that demonstrates the improvement.
