I have the following sample:
\definetype[context][option=tex]
    \definetype[lua][option=lua]
    \starttext
    \startTEXpage[offset=2em]
a \TEX\ inline comment: \context{ag%befe}
\Lua\ inline comment: \lua{agb --efe}
\startTEX
    This is text. % a comment, not \comment
    \stopTEX
\startXML
    <p>This is text.<!--and this is a comment--></p>
    \stopXML
\startLUA
    if code=="code" then --this is a comment
    \stopLUA
    \stopTEXpage
    \stoptext
Would it be possible that all comments in type and typing (at least, for
Lua, XML and TeX) would have the same formatting for the whole comment
contents, including the comment signs?
Dear Pablo,

At least for XML you could use my module highlight-xml:

\usemodule[highlight-xml]
\definetype[xml][option=xml]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=2em]
  \xml{attr="value"}\crlf
  \xml{<p>This is text.<!--and this is a comment--></p>}
  \startXML
    <p>This is text.<!--and this is a comment--></p>
  \stopXML
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext

Note that even partial XML is highlighted correctly.

Cheers,

Christoph
