# ABAL Language Highlighter

An [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md) plugin that adds syntax highlighting for the **ABAL** programming language inside fenced code blocks.

## Features

- Syntax highlighting in **edit mode** (Live Preview & Source) via CodeMirror 6 decorations
- Syntax highlighting in **reading mode** via a Markdown post-processor
- Case-insensitive keyword detection
- Highlights the following token types:
  - **Keywords** — control flow, data types, OOP constructs, built-in instructions
  - **Strings** — double-quoted literals
  - **Comments** — lines starting with `;`
  - **Numbers** — decimal and hexadecimal (`/0A`) literals
  - **Operators** — `+ - * / = < > !`
  - **Punctuation** — `( ) , . :`

## Usage

Use the ` ```abal ` fenced code block in any note:

~~~markdown
```abal
; This is a comment
dcl myVar%
if myVar = 0
  print=1:"Hello, World!"
endif
```
~~~
