" Vim completion script
" Language:    All languages, uses existing syntax highlighting rules
" Maintainer:  David Fishburn <dfishburn dot vim at gmail dot com>
" Version:     15.0
" Last Change: 2021 Apr 27
" Usage:       For detailed help, ":help ft-syntax-omni"

" History
"
" Version 15.0
"   - SyntaxComplete ignored all buffer specific overrides, always used global
"     https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/8153
"
" Version 14.0
"   - Fixed issue with single quotes and is_keyword
"     https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/7463
"
" Version 13.0
"   - Extended the option omni_syntax_group_include_{filetype}
"     to accept a comma separated list of regex's rather than
"     string.  For example, for the javascript filetype you could
"     use:
"        let g:omni_syntax_group_include_javascript = 'javascript\w\+,jquery\w\+'
"   - Some syntax files (perl.vim) use the match // syntax as a mechanism
"     to identify keywords.  This update attempts to parse the
"     match syntax and pull out syntax items which are at least
"     3 words or more.
"
" Version 12.0
"   - It is possible to have '-' as part of iskeyword, when
"     checking for character ranges, tighten up the regex.
"     E688: More targets than List items.
"
" Version 11.0
"   - Corrected which characters required escaping during
"     substitution calls.
"
" Version 10.0
"   - Cycle through all the character ranges specified in the
"     iskeyword option and build a list of valid word separators.
"     Prior to this change, only actual characters were used,
"     where for example ASCII "45" == "-".  If "45" were used
"     in iskeyword the hyphen would not be picked up.
"     This introduces a new option, since the character ranges
"     specified could be multibyte:
"         let g:omni_syntax_use_single_byte = 1
"   - This by default will only allow single byte ASCII
"     characters to be added and an additional check to ensure
"     the character is printable (see documentation for isprint).
"
" Version 9.0
"   - Add the check for cpo.
"
" Version 8.0
"   - Updated SyntaxCSyntaxGroupItems()
"         - Some additional syntax items were also allowed
"           on nextgroup= lines which were ignored by default.
"           Now these lines are processed independently.
"
" Version 7.0
"   - Updated syntaxcomplete#OmniSyntaxList()
"         - Looking up the syntax groups defined from a syntax file
"           looked for only 1 format of {filetype}GroupName, but some
"           syntax writers use this format as well:
"               {b:current_syntax}GroupName
"   -       OmniSyntaxList() will now check for both if the first
"           method does not find a match.
"
" Version 6.0
"   - Added syntaxcomplete#OmniSyntaxList()
"         - Allows other plugins to use this for their own
"           purposes.
"         - It will return a List of all syntax items for the
"           syntax group name passed in.
"         - XPTemplate for SQL will use this function via the
"           sqlcomplete plugin to populate a Choose box.
"
" Version 5.0
"   - Updated SyntaxCSyntaxGroupItems()
"         - When processing a list of syntax groups, the final group
"           was missed in function SyntaxCSyntaxGroupItems.
"
" Set completion with CTRL-X CTRL-O to autoloaded function.
" This check is in place in case this script is
