highlighting of $(...)

[ExpandingMan]

There is one more minor highlighting issue that remains: the boundaries of literal substitutions within expressions like $(...). To conform with the highlighting of $x and :(...), the characters $, (, ) would be highlighted.

Anyway @carlobaldassi just finished doing a great job on implementing symbol highlighting, and I thought I should express my appreciation for that after raising this other, probably rather obnoxious issue 😺.

These are highlighted within Strings, but not in quoted expressions. Again, it boils down to the difficulty of disambiguating with the $ used as xor. I think the easiest thing to do i wait for that use of $ to become deprecated, after which this can be safely implemented (until it's picked up for something else, of course). (Also thanks for the appreciation.)

Oh well.

Awesome, thanks.
