ST3 does not correctly highlight hyphenated elements in Ruby HAML

ST3's Ruby HAML highlighter does not correctly highlight tag names containing hyphens – it stops at the first hyphen. For example, in the fragment below, it just highlights %foo

%foo-bar(class="baz")

This patch fixes the issue:

Maybe when you are using HAML for generating custom XML, but I don't think this would be appropriate in an embedded HAML highlighter (Ruby), only for standalone HAML.

It's quite common when using AngularJS. Hyphens are used in many built-in directives and in custom directives by convention. For an example see ng-include.

Ah! So for attributes!
(i used haml only once, like ages ago)
Thanks.

Well those too, but this bug is for element names :)

Like this: <ng-include src="file.html"/>

Hey guys, just wanted to voice my support in having this merged! I'm also using angular in haml at the moment, and the issue appears.

I would also like this to be merged. Hyphenated tags are going to become (and already have, to some extent) much more common with the popularity of polymer and angular directives.

There is a HAML package on Package Control which comes from textmate and correctly renders hyphenated tags, but I don't think it should be necessary to install.

[jacwright]

Hyphenated tags are part of the W3C spec and are required when creating custom elements via the Web Component Custom Element spec. They are required in the Angular and Polymer frameworks. So there is both a useful reason and a standard indicating that hyphen should be officially added to the HTML and HTML-based parsers.

+1 also useful for auto indentation... which is bothering me more than syntax highlighting.
