RE: [ jEdit-users ] Alternative (or updated) XSL mode

[<mag...@er...>]

The syntax of XSLT 1.0 (and XPath 1.0) is a pure subset of XSLT 2.0 (and XPath 2.0). This means that a valid XSLT 1.0 stylesheet will be highlighted correctly in any case. The only problem is that, if the user tries to use XSLT 2.0 specific syntax in an XSLT 1.0 stylesheet, there will be no indication that the syntax is not valid (until the stylesheet is used, assuming backwards compatible behavior by the stylesheet processor). Personally, I don't think it is much of a problem.

How does other edit modes handle differences between language versions?

Wouldn't it suffice to have XSL 1.0 and 2.0 tags highlghted with
different token types? I don't want to have 2 modes for this since there
will be no way to pick the correct one depending on the file at hand (so
users would end up using only one or the other anyway).
