Description

vscode-lisp does a decent job highlighting lots of LISP code files. Can we please recognize more flavors?

  • ABCL
  • CSI
  • ECL
  • Emacs Lisp
  • SBCL
  • CCL
  • CLISP

Critically, the configuration files for these; Any .LISP files are already highlighting well.

Research direction

Confirm how existing Lisp files are recognized, then add recognition for the listed implementations and their configuration files, while preserving the current .LISP highlighting; verify the extension recognizes each requested flavor.
