Syntax...e::IDL(3pm)
π NAME π
okay bestie, say hi to Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate::IDL β it's a Plugin for IDL syntax highlighting πβ¨
(this is the perl page, from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, and the page header calls it Syntax...e::IDL(3pm) because even manpage headers get truncated, iconic)
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
not me giving you the whole vibe in five lines:
require Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate::IDL;
my $sh = new Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate::IDL([
]);
like. that's it. that's the whole ritual π honestly? slay.
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate::IDL is a plugin module that provides syntax highlighting for IDL to the Syntax::Haghlight::Engine::Kate highlighting engine. yes i typed that exactly like the original says, i am NOT fixing it, we don't do that here π
fr though, important lore: this code is generated from the syntax definition files used by the Kate project. it works quite fine, but it can use refinement and optimization β so like, it's cute and functional but it's giving "first draft that somehow shipped" π¦
it inherits Syntax::Higlight::Engine::Kate::Template. see also there. (again: those spellings are the originals, i am simply the messenger π
)
π AUTHOR π
Hans Jeuken (haje <at> toneel <dot> demon <dot> nl) β the author. the main character, honestly.
π BUGS π
unknown. if you find any, please contact the author. no cap, that's literally the whole bug policy. if you spot something, go tell Hans π«Ά
and that's the whole page, bestie β written by the perl folks, source/version perl v5.40.1 and dated 2026-02-22, which is genuinely such a specific little timestamp for such a chill module. kys? no β ily, go highlight something ππ
