#998 Shell with cmd-replace don't work

[Anonymous]

If scintille work on linux-shell files and the command-replace is used such as

#!/bin/sh
WORKDIR=`pwd`

The whole editline become a yellow bar on WORKDIR and is the same as the command-color
and nothing is seen in this line, This may called the "yellow-vanish"-bug. :-)

best regards - nice tool

This LexBash contributor says: If this is about the just the `pwd` part, there is no bug for the current Bash highlighter. I call it a string interpreted as a command. If anyone wants highlighting within command strings, please contribute a patch for it. Without extra colour styles, it would be hard to spot the small backticks in large command string blocks.

In any case, Vim 7.2 does not appear to highlight any details in command strings. The particular style can always be adjusted to improve on the yellow bar.

Perhaps this is about highlighting the caret line. A yellow caret line background will interfere with the visibility of yellow text. You could try using a translucent caret line since translucent effects are often compatible with a wider variety of styles:

caret.line.back=#FFFE00
caret.line.back.alpha=63
