### Default syntax highlighting
|
||||
|
||||
If micro cannot detect the filetype of the file, it falls back to using the
|
||||
default syntax highlighting for it, which highlights just the bare minimum:
|
||||
email addresses, URLs etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Just like in other cases, you can override the default highlighting by adding
|
||||
your own custom `default.yaml` file to `~/.config/micro/syntax`.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you work with various config files that use the `#` sign to mark
|
||||
the beginning of a comment, you can use the following custom `default.yaml` to
|
||||
highlight those comments by default:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
filetype: unknown
|
||||
|
||||
detect:
|
||||
filename: ""
|
||||
|
||||
rules:
|
||||
- comment: "(^|\\s)#.*$"
|
||||
```
