While trying to use highlight-symbol in coffee mode (especially, cjsx), it interprets Something
and <Something
as two different symbols, while I expect <
to be not part of a symbol.
Tried to trace the problem, and found that this is probably due to thighatpt symbol receives incorrect data from syntax table for coffee mode. How to fix coffee mode's syntax table to allow highlighting all symbols correctly?
(but maybe I am totally wrong with the assessment, and highlight-symbol somehow adds <
to the symbol by itself. But at least in C mode it handles "less than" correctly)
GNU Emacs 24.3.1, Coffee mode 0.6.2, highlight-symbol 20160102.1209
