This package adds basic syntax highlighting support for .ahk files in Atom.

Props to Dayle Rees and his beautifully designed Revalation theme: daylerees/colour-schemes
Syntax highlighting support for the following match types:
- Quoted strings
- Percent sign enclosed strings
- Comment lines
- Numbers
- Directives
- Built-in system variables
- Named key constants
- Function declarations
- Commonly used hotkey modifiers and symbols () English
These are features that I soon hope to implement and/or improve upon in future updates:
- Snippets for all system variables and functions
- General improvements to the regular expression formulas used for syntax matching
- Code folding support
- File system commands for reloading/pausing/compiling AHK scripts.
I'm not entirely sure why I find AutoHotKey to be so extremely satisfying but you can understand my frustration at having a lack of support for my favorite new text editor. So I figured, why not make it myself! So I learned some stuff about Atom, improved my RegEx skills and created my first project that can actually be used by everyone.
This is my first real experience in building a plugin for an application and I'm really excited to be making this available to others who can benefit from it as I do.
Thank you to everyone who installs and enjoys using this package. Hope you love it!!!
