Generic keywords too generic? about rainbow HOT 2 CLOSED

I see how this could be an issue, but it is a bit of an edge case and is something that is going to stay the way it is. The generic patterns are there for a reason so that common things can be shared with different languages.

Rainbow is not trying to figure out the variable in the context. Technically any variable that you use define() with becomes a constant, but assuming constants use all capital letters is simpler in my opinion.

I would say it would be a good idea to use define('STRUCT', 'test') in your code if you are going to be using it that way and then if you did echo STRUCT; it would be highlighted correctly. This also makes your code more readable.

Yah, I see. By convention, normally I uppercase all my constants anyway. Better keep Rainbow lightweight instead of trying to make it jump through hoops for rare edge cases. Thanks.
