There are over 50 such tags -- I can probably take it from here -- didn't want to be a nuisance.

That would work if every TAG ended with "TAG" -- but they do not. They are arbitrary strings.

That's too bad. The repeated character sets would only work if the lengths of the prefixes matched, and the giant character set would need to impose length restrictions (min/max), making it almost impossible.

So far so good -- is there any way to get more than 2 options in a UE-style alternation? Or do I simply need to create multiple FindStr blocks instead?

I understand the limitations of regular expressions -- there will definitely be things that I cannot capture. The example I gave earlier -- with a block tag and a bunch of INNERTAGs -- is a really good example. As I alluded to earlier, each one can have name=value pairs on the open tag. [%BLOCKTAG f...

The character set definition [^t^p -ÿ]+ matches in a function string in syntax highlighting wordfiles all tabs, line terminators of any type and all characters in ANSI table from space character to character ÿ which is the last one with hexadecimal value 0xFF in code page 1252. But usually a negati...

Yes, but I do want JSCRIPT_LANG within script blocks (highlighting, keywords, etc.) -- I'm not all that interested in the function list, and like you said, I can easily add them if I want to. I'm trying to figure out why I can't have subgroups and multi-language syntax highlighting at the same time....

Thanks for your detailed responses. Turns out the "size limitation" wasn't the issue -- it was actually the presence of an open script tag (<script). FYI, HTML_LANG in this wordfile. So it looks like something about the open script tag is messing up the subgroups -- that is, it seems to engage the F...

Using v17.10.0.1015, they all work! Very impressive, Mofi -- I've been trying to fight with this for days now. So let me make sure I understand what you've done. The top-level "Tag" TGFindStr is straightforward -- but basically, there's nothing wrong with matching the entire thing. Can I assume that...

Hello, I'm looking to use the function list for syntax that looks like this: [% PROCESS tabrow name='Fred' email='fred@nowhere.com' %] This is from template toolkit. Basically, each tag starts with [%, ends with %], has a name (tabrow, in this case) and a series of attributes (name, email). Whitespa...
