== Markup strings
In certain contexts, Kakoune can take a markup string, which is a string
containing formatting information. In these strings, the {facename}
syntax will enable the face facename until another face gets activated,
or the end of the string is reached.
In certain contexts, Kakoune can understand markup strings, which are strings
containing formatting information. In these strings, the {facename} syntax
will enable the face facename until another face gets activated, or the end
of the string is reached.
For example, the following command displays the text "default" in the
Default face, and "error" in the Error face:
*Default* face, and "error" in the *Error* face:
----
echo -markup 'default {Error}error{Default} default'
----
Inside a markup string, a literal `{` character is written `\{`, and a
literal backslash (`\`) that precedes a '{' character is escaped as well
(`\\`).
Inside a markup string, a literal `{` character is written as `\{`, and a
literal backslash (`\`) character is written as `\\`.
The `{\}` string disables markup processing for the rest of the line,
and can be used to avoid having to escape text that might be mistaken
for markup instructions.
The `{\}` string disables markup processing for the rest of the line. It
can be used to avoid having to escape text that might be mistaken for markup
instructions.
For example this will prevent any '{' in the current buffer name from
being incorrectly interpreted as markup instruction.
