✨ Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate::XHarbour ✨

okay bestie, so this page? it lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation manual, and it's literally all about one little module that makes xHarbour code look pretty. yes we're doing syntax highlighting lore today, stay with me 💖

💅 NAME

Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate::XHarbour — a Plugin for xHarbour syntax highlighting 🔥

like. that's it. that's the whole job. and she does it well.

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS

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

okay so you require her, you new her up, and you hand her a big ol' list — except in this case the list is literally empty, hence the [ and ] just vibing on their own lines 🙈✨ that's the whole ritual. no cap.

🦋 DESCRIPTION

Syntax::Highlight::Engine::Kate::XHarbour is a plugin module — a little specialist girlie 🧚 — that provides syntax highlighting for xHarbour to the Syntax::Haghlight::Engine::Kate highlighting engine.

(yes the engine name has that spelling, we are not fixing it, we respect her exactly as she is 💜)

This code is generated from the syntax definition files used by the Kate project. It works quite fine, but can use refinement and optimization. (translation: she ate, but she could eat harder. growth mindset, periodt.) 📈

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