Highlight headers

[mcandre]

Would be nice if # ... headers in markdown files were syntax highlighted like function names in source code files.

Could you show a screenshot of what you want, and what is currently shown? An fuller example would be good, too. Is this what you meant?

# Section Foo <!-- color me -->
Foo foo foo.

# Section Bar <!-- color me -->
Bar bar bar.

[mcandre]

Yes, that's it.

I would like the entire header line, from the pound sign # to the end of the line, highlighted in the same color as function names are highlighted.

Personally I like the current color vividchalk gives me: its very easy to spot: #71 (comment).

What theme are you using?

[mcandre]

I enjoy Benokai https://github.com/benjaminwhite/Benokai, a port of
Monokai.

@mcandre please provide a screenshot for your headers. Why do you want to make functions and headers have the same color?

[mcandre]

markdown-mode in Emacs colors Markdown headers this way, and as a result,
it's much easier to spot them in a long Markdown text.

Closing with the following rationale:

Currently # ... is highlighted like the innerHTML of <h1>Header</h1>: this plugin uses the region htmlH1 which is the same that the default /usr/share/vim/vim73/syntax/html.vim, which is very logical and should not be changed. This is also what the default markdown.vim does.

If # ... is not readable enough, then <h1>Header</h1> should not be visible enough either, so this is in fact a bug with your color theme, and not this plugin.

Consider opening an issue for your colortheme, and using a theme like vividchalk in the meantime, which as shown at #71 (comment) makes headers very visible bold pink.
