If your goal is to stop colouring words on context and other kinds
of lines, do you still need the "while (next_match(...))" loop for
them? Can't you make the resulting code clearer by restructuring
the inside of the whole "if (opt->color)" block further, something
along the lines of...
if (sign != ':') {
regmatch_t match; ...
enum grep_context ctx = GREP_CONTEXT_BODY;
...
while (next_match(...)) {
... the "word-by-word" loop ...
}
} else {
switch (sign) {
case '-':
line_color = opt->color_context;
break;
case ':':
line_color = opt->color_function;
break;
}
output_color(opt, bol, ..., line_color);
}
Hmm?
