Please add HTML sample code. about tmtheme-editor

I was trying to build a real tmLanguage parser to be able to parse all languages and highlight them, but I come to realize that it's close to impossible due to javascript Regex limitations.
The second try which will be available in the next release is to parse all files locally in sublime and put the generated HTML output into the app.

That's fair enough, I thought maybe you didn't even try because you hate HTML or something.

The tool is awesome btw. I'm working on a theme that changes color depending on what language you're currently in, which is where I'm running into problems.

I'd've suggested to try Ajax and parsing the stuff on the server but apparently you are using Node.js so yet another JavaScript limitation. Well, I'm not even sure how traffic would go up but that's the only way I can imagine.

Otherwise you could use flash/java for that, even though that doesn't seem to be the "right" choice here.

My second idea after getting disappointed about writing the whole parser in javascript was to compile oniguruma to javascript using emscripten, which wasn't very successful. I would be glad to get some help if you know a bit about compiling stuff with emscripten.
Anyway for now I'm looking at Sublime API to see how I can generate HTML based on code annotated with scopes.

You mean "generating HTML" as in facelessuser/ExportHtml?

[aziz]

yes, I was looking at ExportHtml

[aziz]

HTML is added.
