✨ NAME ✨

Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate::GNU_Gettext — a Plugin for GNU Gettext syntax highlighting 💖

okay so bestie, this is a lil Perl module that does one thing and does it cute: it teaches the Kate highlighting engine how to make GNU Gettext files look pretty 🌸

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

require Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate::GNU_Gettext;
my $sh = new Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate::GNU_Gettext([
]);

that's it. that's the whole vibe. you require it, you new it up with an arrayref (which here is just... empty, and honestly? iconic), and you're off 🦋

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate::GNU_Gettext is a plugin module that provides syntax highlighting for GNU Gettext to the Syntax::Haghlight::Engine::Kate highlighting engine. (yes, that extra g in Haghlight is literally in the original, we do not touch it, we respect it 💅)

This code is generated from the syntax definition files used by the Kate project. It works quite fine, but can use refinement and optimization. (ngl, "works quite fine" is the most honest sentence ever written in a manpage, we love a self-aware queen 👑)

It inherits Syntax::Higlight::Engine::Kate::Template. See also there. ✨
