## Here is an example for C/C++.

syntax "C" "\.(c(c|pp|xx)?|C)$" "\.(h(h|pp|xx)?|H)$" "\.ii?$" "\.(def)$"

## GCC builtins
color green "__attribute__[[:space:]]*\(\([^)]*\)\)" "__(aligned|asm|builtin|hidden|inline|packed|restrict|section|typeof|weak)__"

#Operator Color
color yellow "[.:;,+*|=!\%]" "<" ">" "/" "-" "&" 

#Parenthetical Color
color magenta "[(){}]" "\[" "\]"


##
## String highlighting.  You will in general want your comments and
## strings to come last, because syntax highlighting rules will be
## applied in the order they are read in.
color cyan "<[^= 	]*>" ""(\\.|[^"])*""
##
## This string is VERY resource intensive!
#color cyan start=""(\\.|[^"])*\\[[:space:]]*$" end="^(\\.|[^"])*""

## Comment highlighting
color brightblue "//.*"
color brightblue start="/\*" end="\*/"

## Trailing whitespace
color ,green "[[:space:]]+$"
