changes how syntax highlighting is done from inside micro.

# Micro syntax highlighting files
# Syntax Files
These are the syntax highlighting files for micro. To install them, just
put all the syntax files in `~/.config/micro/syntax`.
They are taken from Nano, specifically from [this repository](https://github.com/scopatz/nanorc).
Micro syntax files are almost identical to Nano's, except for some key differences:
* Micro does not use `icolor`. Instead, for a case insensitive match, use the case insensitive flag (`i`) in the regular expression
* For example, `icolor green ".*"` would become `color green (i) ".*"`
# Using with colorschemes
Not all of these files have been converted to use micro's colorscheme feature. Most of them just hardcode the colors, which
can be problematic depending on the colorscheme you use.
Here is a list of the files that have been converted to properly use colorschemes:
* vi
* go
* c
* d
* markdown
* html
* lua
* swift
* rust
* java
* javascript
* pascal
* python
* ruby
* sh
* git
* tex
* solidity
# License
Because the nano syntax files I have modified are distributed under the GNU GPLv3 license, these files are also distributed
under that license. See [LICENSE](LICENSE).
Here are highlight's syntax files. If you would like to make a new syntax file, you should first check it
with the `syntax_checker.go` program. Just place it in this directory and run the program (`go run syntax_checker.go`)
and it will let you know if there are issues with any of the files in the directory.
