feat(highlight): add MdRenderInlineCode bg to distinguish code from headings#14
Merged
Conversation
…m headings Backtick-wrapped inline code was hardcoded to the `String` highlight group. In many colorschemes `String` and the lower-level heading groups (H3+) end up with the same green-ish foreground, making `code` text indistinguishable from headings in the rendered buffer. Introduce a dedicated `MdRenderInlineCode` group: - fg: inherits from `String` so the existing color cue is preserved - bg: subtle neutral tint (Comment fg blended with Normal/NormalFloat bg at 0.18) — same pattern as `MdRenderImagePlaceholder`, mirroring how source-buffer treesitter highlights inline code Both backtick spans (`restore_code_spans`) and HTML `<code>` tags (`HTML_TAG_HIGHLIGHTS`) route through the new group.

Summary
MdRenderInlineCodehighlight group: fg followsString(preserves the existing color cue) and bg is a subtle neutral tint (Comment fg blended with Normal/NormalFloat bg at α=0.18, same pattern asMdRenderImagePlaceholder).<code>tags now use it, fixing the case where inline code was visually indistinguishable from H3+ headings in colorschemes that paint both green.Reported visually via
