head
is a common Unix/Linux executable, but it's not listed in the shell syntax highlighting configuration.
In contrast, many common executables are. Specifically, its counterpart, tail
, is listed. As are some not uncommon, but not fundamental executables like less
and rpm
.
It's also interesting that the lists differ between the syn keyword
bashStatement
, kshStatement
and shStatement
sections in the Misc
"fold" for executables even when they are independent from the shell. For example, cat
is only listed in the ksh section.
What is the reason head
is omitted? Why are there these other discrepancies?
