Syntax highlighting of xcconfig files for Sublime Text 3

A syntax highlighter configuration for .xcconfig (Xcode configuration) files for Sublime Text 3. Based on work by @dflems.

Fig 1: Screenshot of an xcconfig file being highligthed. Shown with the “Tomorrow - Night” theme.

Installation

Copy the files *.sublime-* files into an xcconfig directory in your Packages directory.

E.g. by default for macOS this would looks something like:

mkdir -p "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/xcconfig"
cp Downloads/*.sublime-* "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/xcconfig"

Enjoy!
