Python syntax highlighting

[johnjmolina]

Hello!

Thanks for the great emacs theme.

I've been using nano-emacs for most of my writing, but I can't seem to get the syntax highlighting to work on python files (lisp, c/c++ are OK). Whenever I open a python file (python-mode) only strings are highlighted, not any of the keywords.
Is this expected behavior?

This is what I get using nano-theme that is available on ELPA:

Thanks!
I installed it using straight.el, but other than that I'm not really sure where the difference might be.
I'll post the issue/fix if I manage to find and solve it.

The nano-theme package has a lot of face definitions that are not present in nano-emacs.

Thanks for this amazing package!

I just discovered it yesterday and really happy with it. I met the same issue as @johnjmolina, which becomes problematic for coding tasks.
Here is a python screenshot

and a latex one

The packages and environments are not highlighted.
You mentioned that the nano-theme package has adequate highlightings, but I could not make it work with nano. Do you know a way to have proper code highlighting in nano? that would make it complete for usage!

@johnjmolina Thanks for the report. Is it with nano-emacs or nano-theme?

[Judafa]

Thanks for the quick response! the problem is with nano-emacs

[rougier]

You should try with nano-theme that has a wider coverage of faces but the italic face is still not italic (design choice). But it should work if you modify it yourself.

I could make it work with a call to nano-mode inside the nano-theme package.
There are import issues (emacs doesnt know what nano-mode is although I installed nano-theme), here is a quick dirty fix that just hard-code eval the required buffers, for future references (assuming the packages installed by straight or in /straight):

(use-package nano
  :straight (:type git :host github :repo "rougier/nano-emacs")
  :init
  (require 'nano)
  (nano-theme-set-light)

  (setq nano-font-size 13)
  (require 'nano)
  (require 'nano-base-colors)
  (require 'nano-faces)
  (with-current-buffer
      (find-file-noselect (concat user-emacs-directory "straight/repos/nano-emacs/nano-modeline.el"))
    (eval-buffer)
    )
  ;; (require 'nano-mu4e)
  (nano-refresh-theme)

  (setq pop-up-windows t)
  )

(use-package nano-theme
  :straight t
  )
(with-current-buffer
    (find-file-noselect (concat user-emacs-directory "straight/repos/nano-theme/nano-theme-support.el"))
  (eval-buffer)
    )
(nano-mode)
