Integrates [zsh-syntax-highlighting][1] into Prezto.

module, unless used in conjuncture with the *history-substring-search* module
where it must be loaded **before** it.

Contributors

New features and bug fixes should be submitted to the
[zsh-syntax-highlighting][1] project according to its rules and regulations.
This module will be synchronized against it.

Settings
--------

### Highlighting

To enable highlighting for this module only, add the following line to
*zpreztorc*:

    zstyle ':prezto:module:syntax-highlighting' color 'yes'

### Highlighters

Syntax highlighting is accomplished by pluggable [highlighters][2]. This module
only enables the *main* highlighter by default.

To enable all highlighters, add the following to *zpreztorc*:

    zstyle ':prezto:module:syntax-highlighting' highlighters \
      'main' \
      'brackets' \
      'pattern' \
      'cursor' \
      'root'

### Highlighting Styles

Each syntax highlighter defines styles used to highlight tokens.

To highlight, for example, builtins, commands, and functions in blue instead of
green, add the following to *zpreztorc*:

    zstyle ':prezto:module:syntax-highlighting' styles \
      'builtin' 'bg=blue' \
      'command' 'bg=blue' \
      'function' 'bg=blue'
