Problem description
I cannot seem to get syntax highlighting to work for Bash. I have tried copying the formatted code from VS Code into Anki using the lightning button and syntax highlighting is not applied. I have also tried formatting code directly in Anki by highlighting the code and clicking on the lightning button and that didn't work either. However, I tried syntax highlighting on some Python code and it worked just fine. So it seems the issue is that Bash code is not being recognized.
