Description
Hi There,
this is a simple feature request.
I am using Micro to edit ConTeXt files, and even though the extension for such markup language is .TEX, the syntax slightly deviatse from pure TeX and some commands and rules are different.
For instance a big issue I am having is regarding the lines commented (%), sometimes are colored as commented and sometimes not and it becomes hard to understand where is the blocking pebcak… 😖
Hope this can be add to the the TO-DO-LIST…
Thanks 🙏
C.
