Python 3 Annotations break highlighting

[pradyunsg]

Currently, if the Python code contains function-annotations (new in Python 3), the highlighting goes hay-wire (as can be seen here).

Please fix. (← there's definitely a better way to say this, but I'm sleepy :| )

Yeah, github is pretty nasty in this respect

I was affected by the same issue recently

linguist uses this stuff for syntax highlight:
https://github.com/github/linguist/tree/master/vendor/grammars

So this needs to be reported as a bug to language-python, which has already been done

I also tried to fix it with a PR, but the test that I added is not working...

The original author was @kevinsawicki but I'm afraid that language-python nowadays is not actively maintained anymore

Thanks @berdario for your answer!

To add on this, there is a fix on the way at atom/language-python#88. I just need to find the time to finish it :/

It can take some time but the grammar is still maintained. Look at the merged/closed PRs ;)

You're right... today I was a bit pessimistic upon seeing that the last merged PR is from 1 month ago.

September is a busy month 😄

Closing this since it's being tracked in atom/language-python#68
