I found this one: https://store.kde.org/p/1220577/ and put it in my ~/.local/share/org.kde.syntax-highlighting/syntax/ folder. It works. It would be great, if you could add it as default.
Can you attach some example xkeyboard file that we can use as unit test? MIT licensed.
Created attachment 135490 [details] Demo XKeyboard file This is how you get your own configuration: xkbcomp $DISPLAY demo.xkb
Hi, as long as nobody contributes a highlighting, nothing will happen. You already pointed to soms description, perhaps you can give it some try. We have good documentation on https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/syntax-highlighting/-/blob/master/README.md to get somebody started. Beside this, one can always reach out on the channels described on https://kate-editor.org/support/
Sorry, I don't understand, why you closed this. The only thing I asked you, to add an already existing kate-hightlighting to the official kate installation. I gave the link here: https://store.kde.org/p/1220577/ and also an advice how to get your own config as an unit test file. What do you want more?
Ok, you are right, I did misread this, sorry.
