This piece of code comes from Vale's arrays implementation.

Installation

Simply add the language_vale.lua file to the plugins directory (on Linux it is ~/.config/lite-xl/plugins) and restart the editor.

Why I made this

I wanted to try out Vale, but the VSCode extension was outdated (it was old keywords). Also, I was looking for another code editor, and found Lite-XL. Aside from finding correct Lua patterns (which differs a bit from regex), coding a plugin for this editor is simple and accessible.

Helpful websites

  • Lua patterns to check what you pattern does and look for errors.
