title = "Syntax highlighting for console snippets"
|
|
date = 2020-05-19

Finally, I moved my blog from wordpress to a static site. I chose [zola](https://www.getzola.org/) as the
|
|
site generator, because most of my documentation nowadays is in markdown anyway.
|
|
|
|
Syntax highlighting was a badly missed feature for me in the past. And zola delivers :-)
|
|
|
|
The only thing missing was syntax highlighting for `console` (terminal) snippets.
|

I need it to display e.g.:
|
|
```console
|
|
$ cd /lib/systemd/system
|
|
$ for i in fedora*storage* lvm2-monitor.* mdmonitor*.*; \
|
|
do sudo systemctl mask $i; \
|
|
done
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
with
|
|
``````
|
|
```console
|
|
$ cd /lib/systemd/system
|
|
$ for i in fedora*storage* lvm2-monitor.* mdmonitor*.*; \
|
|
do sudo systemctl mask $i; \
|
|
done
|
|
```
|
|
``````
|
|
|
|
TLDR: [git repo](https://github.com/haraldh/Sublime-console)
|
|
|
|
Using `bash` as the language indicator does not really fit.
|
|
|
|
``````
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ echo "Hello World" # comment
|
|
Hello World
|
|
$ echo -e ""
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
``````
|
|
|
|
renders as
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ echo "Hello World" # comment
|
|
Hello World
|
|
$ echo -e ""
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It does not honor the shell prompt, so I took the sublime files for `bash` and extended them for `console`.
|
|
|
|
``````
|
|
```console
|
|
$ echo "Hello World" # comment
|
|
Hello World
|
|
$ echo -e ""
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
``````
|
|
|
|
renders as
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ echo "Hello World" # comment
|
|
Hello World
|
|
$ echo -e ""
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
as would a
|
|
|
|
``````
|
|
```bash
|
|
echo "Hello World" # comment
|
|
echo -e ""
|
|
```
|
|
``````
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
echo "Hello World" # comment
|
|
echo -e ""
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: as you can see, the `echo` is not colored in the second line,
|
|
so I filed an [issue](https://github.com/sublimehq/Packages/issues/2367)
|
|
for the sublime bash syntax source.
|
|
|
|
I still have to figure out how to handle
|
|
``````
|
|
```console
|
|
# echo "Hello World"
|
|
# echo "Hello World"
|
|
```
|
|
``````
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# echo "Hello World"
|
|
# echo "Hello World"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
although this seems to work:
|
|
|
|
``````
|
|
```console
|
|
# echo "Hello World"
|
|
Hello World
|
|
# echo "Hello World"
|
|
Hello World
|
|
```
|
|
``````
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# echo "Hello World"
|
|
Hello World
|
|
# echo "Hello World"
|
|
Hello World
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Nevertheless, I uploaded the console sublime syntax to a [git repo](https://github.com/haraldh/Sublime-console).
|
|
|
|
Feel free to use it.
