Subject: What is this syntax for in php-mode.el
Date: Fri, 20 Apr 2007 03:26:11 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <462816B3.7080000@gmail.com> (raw)
I am looking at php-mode.el from Turadg. I can not understand this:
(defconst php-font-lock-syntactic-keywords
(if xemacsp nil
;; Mark shell-style comments. font-lock handles this in a
;; separate pass from normal syntactic scanning (somehow), so we
;; get a chance to mark these in addition to C and C++ style
;; comments. This only works in GNU Emacs, not XEmacs 21 which
;; seems to ignore this same code if we try to use it.
(list
;; Mark _all_ # chars as being comment-start. That will be
;; ignored when inside a quoted string.
'("\\(\#\\)"
(1 (11 . nil)))
;; Mark all newlines ending a line with # as being comment-end.
;; This causes a problem, premature end-of-comment, when '#'
;; appears inside a multiline C-style comment. Oh well.
'("#.*\\([\n]\\)"
(1 (12 . nil)))
)))
What is it for? Does php use # as a comment somewhere?
And what about the format for the list entries? I tried to look at
font-lock-syntactic-keywords, but I can not see that these entries
follows the spec there.
How does this work?
