Syntax Highlighting Grammar

Hix provides a grammar generator for editors like VS Code or Sublime Text using the TextMate format.

Generating the Grammar

Run the following command:

hix --gen-grammar hix.tmLanguage.json

This generates a hix.tmLanguage.json file that can be used in editor extensions or custom themes.
