Lexer checklist

[MichaelHatherly]

A list of lexers for different languages/filetypes that would be useful to have. For the most part this list should be based on what other source code highlighters (Pygments, Rouge, etc.) have implemented.

• Julia.
• Julia Console, i.e. jlcon.
• Python.
• C and C++.
• Scheme, Common Lisp, Clojure, etc.
• MATLAB.
• Fortran.
• R.
• TOML.
• Bash, Shell scripts, etc.
• LLVM IR
• ASM
• hundreds of others...

It would be nice to add LLVM IR and ASM here. See JuliaDebug/Cthulhu.jl#44

I'm adding a bump for tkf's request here and an additional petition for ptx, of which there is already a Pygments port in GPUCompiler.

If someone is willing to handhold me with a ptx PR I'll get around to it.

If someone is willing to handhold me with a ptx PR I'll get around to it.

Just ping me when you have any questions. I've not looked at the codebase in a while, but shouldn't be too hard to get reacquainted with it.

I was doing the PR on PTX highlighting for GPUCompiler but I suppose this is the natural place to implement first. I will file a PR shortly. The pygments source for highlighting ptx isn't great imo and a specific highlighter should do a better job. I'll file a PR shortly.
