Question about support scope (vs constant scope): Is it plan to explicit make a differentiation between the both?

[The-Lum]

Hello GitHub [light|dark] syntax theme generator,

From:

• Github C4-PlantUML syntax highlighting  qjebbs/vscode-plantuml#428
• Highlighting `support.class` scope (example on PlantUML language) github-linguist/linguist#5530

We have a question:

• Is it plan to explicit differentiate support scope colour from constant scope colour?

TextMate scope(s)	CSS class	github-light colour	github-dark colour
constant	.pl.c1	#005cc5	#c8e1ff
support.class or support	.pl-c1	#005cc5	#c8e1ff

Regards.

I wouldn't count on it. GitHub's syntax highlighting uses an extremely rudimentary colour palette compared to the richness of TextMate themes. This appears to be a design decision more than a technical limitation.

Moreover, the exact scope-colours are subject to change depending on the whims of GitHub's design team. FYI, you can see a full list of scopes with their current colours here.
