Daniel Shahaf 9b64ad750f tests: Add a 'print failures only' mode to 'make test', called 'make quiet-test'.
Fixes zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting#262.

Currently, 'make quiet-test' uses Perl.  However, since it is considered a development
tool rather than a user-facing tool, users and downstream packages needn't install Perl.
Furthermore, even this dev-only dependency may be dropped in the future.

The only difference between tests/tap-filter here and the one in the issue is using
a `cat` subshell v. using 'undef $/; <STDIN>'.

zsh-syntax-highlighting

Fish shell-like like syntax highlighting for Zsh.

Requirements: zsh 4.3.17+.

This package provides syntax highlighing for the shell zsh. It enables highlighing of commands whilst they are typed at a zsh prompt into an interactive terminal. This helps in reviewing commands before running them, particularly in catching syntax errors.

FAQ

Why must zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh be sourced at the end of the .zshrc file?

zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh wraps ZLE widgets. It must be sourced after all custom widgets have been created (i.e., after all zle -N calls and after running compinit). Widgets created later will work, but will not update the syntax highlighting.

How are new releases announced?

There is currently no "push" announcements channel. However, the following alternatives exist:

How to tweak

Syntax highlighting is done by pluggable highlighter scripts. See the documentation on highlighters for details and configuration settings.
