Feature request: Dart syntax highlighting

[Wdestroier]

The editor theme is great, but without syntax highlight it's much harder to read the code. Would be great if it supported Dart.

Other questions:
The scroll width is too small, can it be increased in the configuration?
Can Focus open files in a single instance by default? Everytime it opens a new window. For example: when I try to open a zipped dart file.
Can Focus keep a list of open files? And persist it when the editor is closed and reopened? Similar to Notepad++.

It's only possible to support Dart if someone familiar with Dart sends a PR adding the support, or at the very least provides a complete list of keywords and parsing rules for other things so that we can implement it. For the other questions it's best to ask them on discord and not under an unrelated feature request

It's only possible to support Dart if someone familiar with Dart sends a PR
adding the support, or at the very least provides a complete list of
keywords and parsing rules for other things so that we can implement it.

Highlighting all keywords is probably a good start.

keywords :: {
    "abstract", "as", "assert", "async",
    "await", "base", "break", "case",
    "catch", "class", "const", "continue",
    "covariant", "default", "deferred", "do",
    "dynamic", "else", "enum", "export",
    "extends", "extension", "external", "factory",
    "false", "final", "finally",
    "for", "Function", "get", "hide",
    "if", "implements", "import", "in",
    "interface", "is", "late", "library",
    "mixin", "new", "null", "of",
    "on", "operator", "part", "required",
    "rethrow", "return", "sealed", "set",
    "show", "static", "super", "switch",
    "sync", "this", "throw", "true",
    "try", "type", "typedef", "var",
    "void", "when", "with", "while",
}

For the other questions it's best to ask them on discord and not under an
unrelated feature request.

Thank you.

Users can't create syntaxes without recompiling the editor... Typically that'd be fine, but most users don't have the Jai compiler including myself... So that's a limiting factor.
