-How JOE syntax highlighting works
-=================================
-
-*from [c.jsf](http://joe-editor.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb/joe-editor/joe-editor/file/tip/syntax/c.jsf.in),
-slightly modified*
-
-A (deterministic) state machine which performs lexical analysis of C.
-(This is the "assembly language" of syntax highlighting.  A separate
-program could be used to convert a regular expression NFA syntax into this
-format).
-
-Each state begins with:
-
-    :<name> <color-name>
-
-\<name\> is the state's name.
-\<color-name\> is the color used for characters eaten by the state
-(really a symbol for a user definable color).
-
-The first state defined is the initial state.
-
-Within a state, define transitions (jumps) to other states.  Each
-jump has the form:
-
-        <character-list> <target-state-name> [<option>s]
-
-There are three ways to specify \<character-list\>s, either * for any
-character not otherwise specified, & to match the character in the
-delimiter match buffer or a literal list of characters within quotes
-(ranges and escape sequences allowed).  When the next character matches
-any in the list, a jump to the target-state is taken and the character is
-eaten (we advance to the next character of the file to be colored).
-
-The * transition should be the first transition specified in the state.
-
-There are several options:
-
-* __noeat__       - Do not eat the character, instead feed it to the next state
-                    (this tends to make the states smaller, but be careful: you
-                    can make infinite loops).  'noeat' implies 'recolor=-1'.
-
-* __recolor=-N__  - Recolor the past N characters with the color of the
-                    target-state.  For example once /* is recognized as the
-                    start of C comment, you want to color the /* with the C
-                    comment color with recolor=-2.
-
-* __mark__        - Mark beginning of a region with current position.
-
-* __markend__     - Mark end of region.
-
-* __recolormark__ - Recolor all of the characters in the marked region with
-                    the color of the target-state.  If markend is not given,
-                    all of the characters up to the current position are recolored.
-                    Note that the marked region can not cross line boundaries and
-                    must be on the same line as recolormark.
-
-* __buffer__      - Start copying characters to a string buffer, beginning with this
-                    one (it's ok to not terminate buffering with a matching
-                    'strings' option- the buffer is limited to leading 23
-                    characters).
-
-* __save_c__      - Save character in delimiter match buffer.
-
-* __save_s__      - Copy string buffer to delimiter match buffer.
-
-* __strings__     - A list of strings follows.  If the buffer matches any of the
-                    given strings, a jump to the target-state in the string list
-                    is taken instead of the normal jump.
-
-* __istrings__    - Same as strings, but case is ignored.
-                    Note: strings and istrings should be the last option on the
-                    line.  They cause any options which follow them to be ignored.
-
-* __hold__        - Stop buffering string- a future 'strings' or 'istrings' will
-                    look at contents of buffer at this point.  Useful for distinguishing
-                    commands and function calls in some languages 'write 7' is a command
-                    'write (' is a function call- hold lets us stop at the space and delay
-                    the string lookup until the ( or 7.
-
-The format of the string list is:
-
-        "string"   <target-state> [<options>s]
-        "string"   <target-state> [<options>s]
-        "&"        <target-state> [<options>s]   # matches contents of delimiter match buffer
-        done
-
-(all of the options above are allowed except "strings", "istrings" and "noeat".  noeat is
-always implied after a matched string).
-
-Weirdness: only states have colors, not transitions.  This means that you
-sometimes have to make dummy states with
-
-        *    <next-state>    noeat
-
-just to get a color specification.
-
-Delimiter match buffer is for perl and shell: a regex in perl can be s<..>(...)
-and in shell you can say: <<EOS ....... EOS
-
-New feature: subroutines
-------------------------
-
-Highlighter state machines can now make subroutine calls.  This works by
-template instantiation: the called state machine is included in your
-current state machine, but is modified so that the return address points
-to the called.  There is still no run-time stack (the state is represented
-as a single integer plus the saved delimiter string).
-
-Recursion is allowed, but is self limited to 5 levels.
-
-To call a subroutine, use the 'call' option:
-
-        "\""    fred    call=string(dquote)
-
-The subroutine called 'string' is called and the jump to 'fred' is
-ignored.  The 'dquote' option is passed to the subroutine.
-
-The subroutine itself returns to the caller like this:
-
-        "\""    whatever    return
-
-If we're in a subroutine, the return is made.  Otherwise the jump
-to 'whatever' is made.
-
-There are several ways of delimiting subroutines which show up in how it
-is called.  Here are the options:
-
-* __call=string()__         - A file called string.jsf is the subroutine.
-                              The entire file is the subroutine.  The starting
-                              point is the first state in the file.
-
-* __call=library.string()__ - A file called library.jsf has the subroutine.
-                              The subroutine within the file is called string.
-
-* __call=.string()__        - There is a subroutine called string in the current file.
-
-When a subroutine is within a file, but is not the whole file, it is delimited
-as follows:
-
-    .subr string
-
-    . . . states for string subroutine . . .
-
-    .end
-
-Option flags can be passed to subroutines which control preprocessor-like
-directives.  For example:
-
-    .ifdef dquote
-        "\""    idle    return
-    .endif
-    .ifdef squote
-        "'"     idle    return
-    .endif
-
-.else if also available.  .ifdefs can be nested.
-
-Obsolete feature: sync lines
-----------------------------
-
-the sync lines specification no longer matter.  We now always parse
-from the beginning of the file.  Here is the old description:
-
-Define no. sync lines
-You can say:
-
-* '-200' means 200 lines
-* '-'    means always start parsing from beginning of file when we lose sync
-         if nothing is specified, the default is -50
-
-Colors and attributes
----------------------
-
-Define colors and attributes.  Give a list of attributes, one
-background color and one foreground color (default is used if
-color is left out).
-
-Attributes:
-  bold inverse blink dim underline
-
-Standard colors:
-
-Foreground:
-  white cyan magenta blue yellow green red black
-
-Background:
-  bg_white bg_cyan bg_magenta bg_blue bg_yellow bg_green bg_red bg_black
-
-For 16 color and 256 color xterms: "export TERM=xterm-16color", these
-brighter than normal colors are available:
-
-> Note that you need an xterm which was compiled to support 16 or 256 colors
-> and a matching termcap/terminfo entry for it.
-
-Foreground:
-  WHITE CYAN MAGENTA BLUE YELLOW GREEN RED BLACK
-
-Background:
-  bg_WHITE bg_CYAN bg_MAGENTA bg_BLUE bg_YELLOW bg_GREEN bg_RED bg_BLACK
-
-For 256 color xterm: "export TERM=xterm-256color", these become available:
-
-> Note that you need an xterm which was compiled to support 256 colors and a
-> matching termcap/terminfo entry for it.
-
-fg_RGB and bg_RGB, where R, G, and B range from 0 - 5.  So: fg_500 is bright red.
-
-fg_NN and bg_NN give shades of grey, where the intensity, NN, ranges from 0 - 23.

-# JOE Syntax Highlighting
-
-This directory mainly contains *improved and completely new* JOE syntax files
-fixing bugs in the original files and adding support for new languages.
-
-## Using
-
-### *.jsf
-
-To enable the .jsf files in this repository they need to appear in JOEs
-*syntax* directory.  This is likely to be */usr/share/joe/syntax* when using
-Debian and APT or */usr/local/Cellar/joe/3.7/share/joe/syntax* when using brew
-on Mac OS X.  You may download the
-[latest jsf-bundle](https://github.com/downloads/cmur2/joe-syntax/jsf-bundle_2.tar)
-and place it's contents into the *syntax* directory (Note: this bundle might
-be outdated compared to the repository's state).
-
-A maybe better way to achieve this is to clone this repository somewhere
-onto your hard disk and establish symlinks to all jsf files in the *syntax*
-directory.
-
-### ftyperc (only needed to enable new languages)
-
-To enable the enhanced *ftyperc* from this repository to gain syntax
-highlighting support for new languages without overwriting
-*/etc/joe/ftyperc*, you may place the modified one in *~/.joe/* as
-*~/.joe/ftyperc*.
-
-## How JOE syntax highlighting works
-
-See [HowItWorks.md](https://github.com/cmur2/joe-syntax/blob/master/HowItWorks.md)
-which is a reworked version of the header of
-[c.jsf](http://joe-editor.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb/joe-editor/joe-editor/file/tip/syntax/c.jsf.in).
-Another good resource might be
-[jsf.jsf](http://joe-editor.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb/joe-editor/joe-editor/file/tip/syntax/jsf.jsf.in).
