Code highlighting in LESS files

Post by ttx »

Hi,

few weeks ago i started using BEM methodology (https://en.bem.info/). Preprocessors like LESS makes this incredibly easy. Code looks like this:

Code: Select all

.tab {
  &-item {
    display: inline-block;
  }

  &-link {
    color: blue;
  }
}
and gets translated to:

Code: Select all

.tab-item {
  display: inline-block;
}

.tab-link {
  color: blue;
}
My issue is that code highlighter in RapidPHP makes every line with "&-" red (as erroneous).

Can you please fix this? Or send me some updated "less highlighter configuration file" as a temporary fix?

Thank you.
