UDL 2.0 Question - Recognizing syntax

Steven Epps

See picture above. I’m trying to get UDL to recognize ‘RESEARCH:’

So the semicolon syntax is what I want UDL to identify as defining a function (Is it called a function at this point or a subscript? Its been a while since I’ve coded in text :( )

I know this is probably a rudimentary question and I’ve looked through the UDL site, but haven’t resolved it myself.

Hello @Steven-Epps,

the following is assumed

a) RESEARCH isn’t a keyword but a function
b) the colon appears only on functions

if so, I would define a delimiter with ((A B C D E F …)) as open and : as closed
… needs to be all remaining letters of course.

Cheers
Claudia

Dear @Steven-Epps,

I have to apologize, I don’t know what got into me posting such a nonsens.
With current version of UDL you cannot highlight strings based on a suffix.
What you could do so is to use e.g. F_ as unique identifier for functions
and define delimiter start F_ and end :
So, F_RESEARCH: would get highlighted.

Sorry
Claudia
