zsh-syntax-highlighting / highlighters / pattern
This is the pattern highlighter, that highlights user-defined patterns.
How to tweak it
To use this highlighter, associate patterns with styles in the
ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_PATTERNS associative array, for example in ~/.zshrc:
# To have commands starting with `rm -rf` in red:
ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_PATTERNS+=('rm -rf *' 'fg=white,bold,bg=red')
The syntax for values is the same as the syntax of "types of highlighting" of
the zsh builtin $zle_highlight array, which is documented in the zshzle(1)
manual page.
