Question

I’m able to change an entire documentation block’s color inside textmate by using the scope comment.block.documentation

However is it possible to change the color of specific words inside that docblock?

I’m refering to change the color of words or even the entire line like

@TODO 
@FIXME 
@CHANGED

thanks.

Ok… i was able to find the answer.

Bundles > Bundle Editor > Show Bundle Editor

Select the Language Javascript (note… the language has a L icon inside the Javascript item on the left list)

find for the scope named comment.block.documentation.js and modify it accordingly

{   name = 'comment.block.documentation.js';
        begin = '(/\*\*)\s*$';
        end = '\*/';
        beginCaptures = { 1 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.comment.js'; }; };
        endCaptures = { 0 = { name = 'punctuation.definition.comment.js'; }; };
        patterns = (
            {   name = 'meta.documentation.tag.todo.js';
                begin = '((\@)TODO)';
                end = '(?=^\s*\*?\s*@|\*/)';
            },
            {   name = 'meta.documentation.tag.fixme.js';
                begin = '((\@)FIXME)';
                end = '(?=^\s*\*?\s*@|\*/)';
            },
            {   name = 'meta.documentation.tag.changed.js';
                begin = '((\@)CHANGED)';
                end = '(?=^\s*\*?\s*@|\*/)';
            },
        );
    },

after you just have to change the color on the prefs window, using the declared selector!
