I already started to create it on my own, but I'm a real moron, when talking about regex, and I also borroght some parts from a resource I found.
So it is far away from being perfect, but on the test side it works quite good.
npm run test:languages -- --language=purebasic --pretty also didn't show any problems, but npm test errors our, and I have no idea why.
I've attached all I have done so far.

Thanks!

npm run test:languages -- --language=purebasic --pretty also didn't show any problems, but npm test errors our, and I have no idea why.

npm run test:languages basically just ensure that your language works and that it's correct. npm test also includes some really strict tests for regexes, patterns, and names. I added these in because they are all things that can be potential errors and I will them point out in review anyway.
Could you please tell me what error you got? (I want to add a more descriptive error message.)

Is this error message clearer?

(I'm sorry that I don't just tell you what to do here but I really want that you and others are able to understand why this error is there and how to fix it.)

[HeX0R101]

No need to apologize, I'm fine with showing me the door and letting me walk through alone.
Yes, that description should help indeed!
Let me see, if I can make it shut-up now.
Any chance to make the red color of the error messages a little lighter? It's quite hard to read...

The was just a little screenshot. #2364 is now in master, so you can get the changes and read the errors in your favorite color 😄.

If you have any other questions or can't make some errors disappear, feel free to ask. My little experiment is now over.

[HeX0R101]

I'm not very familar with git... but I think I made the language description work.
I've cloned the master, and integrated the changes to my local copy.
Can I just "push" the changes to the master, or will I somehow destroy your master then?

[RunDevelopment]

I will take "integrated" as committed. You can push the master branch to your fork, that will work. (Not ideal but simple)

[RunDevelopment]

Also, you generally can't destroy (as in lose data) anything with git. (Technically, you can but you have to try really hard for that.)
