From 91d8f2ac534a51859c0e3c6562d07c94b27f4478 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: zeertzjq Date: Mon, 21 Aug 2023 10:25:41 +0800 Subject: vim-patch:9.0.1767: '.-' no allowed in highlight group names (#24814) Problem: '.-' no allowed in highlight group names Solution: Allow dot and hyphen characters in highlight group names Allow dots and hyphens in group names.
