Development

Build system was migrated to CMake for ease of building. Root Makefile defines common tasks for debug and release builds.

# Debug build in ./build/debug directory:
make configure_debug PREFIX=/usr/local
make debug

# Release build in ./build/release directory:
make configure_release PREFIX=/usr/local
make debug

make install  # installs release build only

Debug build also compiles and runs unit tests and validates schema for bundled syntax and color scheme files. For schema validation some Python dependencies are required:

pip install jsonschema yaml

Syntax highlighting
