Syntax highlighting flaws

[tomx-sh]

Hi,
Solidity syntax highlighting seems a bit flawed on VSCode. Using cmd+shift+P>Developer: Inspect Editor Tokens and Scopes, you can verify that:

• some ) characters are not recognized as punctuation.parameters.end (some are)
• some , characters are not recognized as punctuation.separator (some are)
• in >=, the = character is not recognized as part of the keyword.operator.logic. (It is recognized as keyword.operator.assignment instead).

The following image illustrates this using my custom theme:

If you give me some quick directives, I may be able to help fixing this (my experience with ANTLR V4 lexer and parser systems might come useful). I'd be happy to!

Those are great catches, thanks!

The syntax highlighting in vscode is handled by its own built-in system based on textmate grammars. You can find the file here:
