How to create language dialects about vscode-textmate HOT 3 CLOSED

assigning the same scopeName to two different languages will not go well each language should have its own globally unique scopeName

instead of injecting it's prob way easier to just "include": "source.base" from within a.tmLanguage.json as long as you have the base scopeName under grammars

@RedCMD Thank you very much, I succesfully did this with an overall "include": "source.base" and several "injections" to add dialect specifics

P.S. I've searched the Internet for the scheme of tmLanguage.json files for several times, but all I could find is just a few duplicates of the official VS Code Docs, and there is nothing about the useful injection section.
Actually the only reference I found about it is the syntax file from your extension. Perhaps you'd like to make an issue about it to the VS Code Docs so that newcomers can be less frustrating about similar tricky problems?
Finally, I'd like to say that your extension really helps me a lot.

{
  "scopeName": "source.base",
  "path": "./syntaxes/base.tmLanguage.json"

here's my schema for VSCode json TextMate

I still need to finalize a bunch of things
and I'm waiting for vscode to support unofficial json files

and some wip docs
