String syntax

Kakoune support three string syntax:
* "strings" and 'strings': classic strings, use \' or \" to escape the

separator.
* %{strings}: these strings are very usefull when entering commands, first the '{' and '}'
delimiter is configurable: you can use any non alphanumeric character.
like %[string], %<string>, %(string), %~string~ or %!string!...
if the character following the % is one of {[(<, then the closing one is
the matching }])>, and these delimiters in the string need not to be
escaped if the contained delimiters are balanced.
for example %{ roger {}; } is a valid string.

Highlighters
------------
Manipulation of the displayed text is done through highlighters, which can be added
or removed with the command :addhl <highlighter_name> <highlighter_parameters...>
and :rmhl <highlighter_id>
or removed with the command
-----------------------------------------------------
:addhl <highlighter_name> <highlighter_parameters...>
-----------------------------------------------------
and

:rmhl <highlighter_id>

existing highlighters are:
* *highlight_selections*: used to make current selection visible
* *expand_tabs*: expand tabs to next 8 multiple column (to make configurable)
* *number_lines*: show line numbers
* *group*: highlighter group, containing other highlighters. takes one
* +highlight_selections+: used to make current selection visible
* +expand_tabs+: expand tabs to next 8 multiple column (to make configurable)
* +number_lines+: show line numbers
* +group+: highlighter group, containing other highlighters. takes one
parameter, <group_name>. useful when multiple highlighters work
together and need to be removed as one. Adding and removing from
a group can be done using
:addhl -group <group> <highlighter_name> <highlighter_parameters...>
:rmhl -group <group> <highlighter_name>
* *regex*: highlight a regex, takes the regex as first parameter, followed by
`:addhl -group <group> <highlighter_name> <highlighter_parameters...>`
`:rmhl -group <group> <highlighter_name>`
* +regex+: highlight a regex, takes the regex as first parameter, followed by
any number of color spec parameters.
color spec format is: <capture_id>:<fg_color>[,<bg_color>]
For example:
:addhl regex //(\h+TODO:)?[^\n]+ 0:cyan 1:yellow,red
For example: `:addhl regex //(\h+TODO:)?[^\n]+ 0:cyan 1:yellow,red`
will highlight C++ style comments in cyan, with an eventual
'TODO:' in yellow on red background.

Hooks

commands can be registred to be executed when certain events arise.
to register a hook, use the hook command.

Using shell expansion permits to define complex commands or to access
