# News

|
|
* 15-06-2019
|
|
- A new architecture for defining the highlighting for **specific commands**: it now
|
|
uses **abstract definitions** instead of **top-down, regular code**. The first effect
|
|
is the highlighting for the `git` command it is now **maximally faithful**, it
|
|
follows the `git` command almost completely.

```zsh

```
|
|
|
