CoffeeScript Scanner

[nathany]

CoffeeScript is the default browser scripting language shipping with Rails 3.2+ (#75). It should probably be supported by CodeRay.

The grammar:

• http://coffeescript.org/documentation/docs/grammar.html

There are two implementations:

• https://github.com/jashkenas/coffee-script/
• https://github.com/michaelficarra/CoffeeScriptRedux

Open source projects using CoffeeScript (for sample code):

• http://batmanjs.org/
• https://github.com/jashkenas/coffee-script/tree/master/examples
• CoffeeScript itself is written in CoffeeScript

That code snippet you pasted is using the Ruby highlighter -- which seems to work pretty well for CoffeeScript! There's still no official CoffeeScript highlighter, though.
