[NTG-context] ConTeXt support for Nova text editor (MacOS)

[NTG-context] ConTeXt support for Nova text editor (MacOS)

[Paul Mazaitis]

Hello, list!

I'm working on a ConTeXt language extension for the Nova editor by Panic software (https://nova.app/).

The extension is here:

	https://github.com/pmazaitis/nova-context/releases/tag/0.6.0

...currently in beta, but fairly functional.

This version of the extension supports:

* Syntax Highlighting
* Folding for (most) environments
* Navigating by Symbols (headings: chapter, section, etc.)
* Spell-checking of body text and section titles
* Managing builds with Nova's tasks system

(As an aside, this extension uses an updated version of the ConTeXt tree-sitter parser [https://github.com/pmazaitis/tree-sitter-context] that can now recognize (most) environments and use them to parse out the document hierarchy.)

Limitations at the moment: not all environments are supported (only those with \start and \stop commands right now), and the extension only supports English.

Happy for any bug reports, etc.,

	-Paul

Thank you – would you mind to add it to 
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Text_Editors please?

Last time I checked tree-sitter on neovim, there were no good tree-sitters for context. I'd be interested in testing this out. 

Does the parser detect nested metapost and luatex environments?

Happy to have feedback!

The parser recognizes chunks of metapost and latex code and marks them in the syntax tree, but does nothing else: I figured the best approach here was to let applications call out to various tree-sitter parsers as needed.

I don't know of a tree-sitter parser for either metapost or latex. The next one I am going to try to build a parser for is metapost (following the reference material in the back of the manual) but I haven't sat down to that task yet.

(Plus, that one's going to need a _lot_ of testing by people other than I; I only use metapost for very simple things, and my understanding is surface level at best.)

i don't know what a tree sitter is (probably a bird) but wasn't vim 
using lua ... if so, context ships with parsers for whatever it needs 
that one can look at

also, when context gets updated there are also updated lua files in:

context\data\scite\context\lexers\data\*

that can be used for highlighting categories of commands, enviromnents etc

Oof, my apologies; the release binary on GitHub has been fixed!
