editor.nonWordCharacters and syntax highlight regex "\b"

[yuriy]

Hi there,

Is there are possibility to use editor.nonWordCharacters option in syntax highlighting scheme? For now I'm using patterns/match (syntax .cson file) with "\b" anchor (words boundary) and it does not affects by nonWordCharacters option.

What I should do instead of manually adding the [list-of-non-word-chars] at the begin and end of regex?

Thanks, Yuriy.

No, there isn't a method for doing what you're asking.

Well, I have found the way to do this. But it looks too complex for now.

So.
1) Going to nodejs github repository.
2) Adding to v8 regex library (deps/icu-small/source/i18n/) additional option to regex constructor for defining "non-word" symbols list
3) Waiting to updated js library in nodejs
4) Waiting to updated nodejs in atom.
5) Done.
