Make highlighting of markdownError optional

[blueyed]

I would like to disable highlighting of markdownError.

syn match markdownError "\w@<=_\w@="

Do you think an optional setting like markdown_no_error makes sense?
(or markdown_no_underscore_error in case this should be more specific)

My case at hand is including Markdown syntax for Lua comments. But also in other situations I've found that "foo_bar" would not trigger emphasizing after _.

I've only skimmed http://spec.commonmark.org/0.21/#emphasis-and-strong-emphasis (and know that there are other implementations), but it appears that most would handle foo_bar as just "foo_bar" and not foo<em>bar.

Therefore I think the default should maybe even be to not display this type of error - but others might be added in the future?!

Try putting this in your .vimrc: autocmd FileType markdown syn clear markdownError

@ptzz
Thanks.

I've found that this would then start highlighting the _bar in foo_bar as italic instead.

I am now using this:

autocmd FileType markdown hi link markdownError NONE

I think it's not worth a config var.

Please let me know if there's an even better way though, of course.
