Issues & Pull Requests

Feel free to open an issue if you experience some strange behaviour.

If possible, include a screenshot and example code in your issue. If you want to walk the extra mile - fire up the TextMate inspector Developer: Inspect TM Scopes from the Command Palette and jot down the "scope" in the GitHub issue as well.

If you want to add support for a new language, I will be happy to receive Pull Requests - but please do not add any colors or make anything italic.
