Sublime Syntax definition for bat to colorize command --help messages.

It provides just enough color to help find your way around a help message.

See examples from other help messages.

This syntax is included with bat since version 0.21.0.

If you have an earlier version of bat or you want the latest version of cmd-help, you can add it as a new syntax. You have to copy this syntax file.

To check that everything works, run git --help | bat -plhelp

Visit the wiki for configuration tips, including:

• Setting a bathelp alias to avoid typing the full bat command with options each time (basic configuration).
• Adding a help function you can use like $ help <CMD>, or even $ help <CMD> <SUBCMD>.
• Enhancing --help so you can simply type $ <CMD> --help as usual.

cmd-help is compatible with most bat themes (~2/3rds). To get the best experience, ensure your configured theme is supported. See the list of compatible themes.

Contributions are welcome! :D

Make sure to give CONTRIBUTING.md a cursory read to learn how you can help.

If you want to hack on the project, look at the Development doc to help get you started.

If you like cmd-help, please star it on GitHub and spread the word. :)
