F# syntax definitions for Sublime Text 2. When installed, these provide syntax highlighting to make it easier to work with F# source code.

• F# source files and scripts (.fs, .fsi, .fsx)
  • This file is based on fsharp-tmbundle.
• fslex (.fsl) and fsyacc (.fsy)
  • These are modified versions of the ocamllex and ocamlyacc definitions which ship with Sublime Text.

• Bugfixes

  • Some keywords and compiler directives aren't highlighted.

  • Verbatim strings are not yet supported (i.e., they're not highlighted correctly).

  • In the fslex and fsyacc definitions:

    • Some text elements are highlighted correctly (i.e., they're recognized and the correct color/style is applied), but the last character in the token isn't highlighted.

    • If the single-line comment token // occurs on the same line as and before the closing token of a multi-line comment *), the // eats the rest of the line -- including the *). This causes the multi-line comment not to be closed, so the rest of the file will be highlighted as if it were commented-out. For example:

      (* Some comment text, with a link below it:
         http://foobar.com/baz *)

  • The following code isn't highlighted correctly when the record instantiation is moved above the List.foldBack and the forward pipeline |> operator is used to apply the record to List.foldBack. It's likely a scoping-related issue, since TextMate / Sublime Text 2 syntax definitions only allow patterns to be matched within a single line. Scoping constructs must be used to identify multi-line patterns.

    { Header = $1;
      Tokens = [];
      Types = [];
      Associativities = [];
      StartSymbols = [];
      Rules = $4; }
    |> List.foldBack (fun f x -> f x) $2

• Future

  • Syntax highlighting for F# Interactive when used through SublimeREPL.
  • Once the bugs are fixed, I'll create a package and for this and submit it to Package Control so it can be installed from within Sublime Text.
