+Hacking on zsh-syntax-highlighting itself
+=========================================
+
+This document includes information for people working on z-sy-h itself: on the
+core driver (`zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh`), on the highlighters in the
+distribution, and on the test suite.  It does not target third-party
+highlighter authors (although they may find it an interesting read).
+
+The `main` highlighter
+----------------------
+
+The following function `pz` is useful when working on the `main` highlighting:
+
+```zsh
+pq() {
+  (( $#argv )) || return 0
+  print -r -l -- ${(qqqq)argv}
+}
+pz() {
+  local arg
+  for arg; do
+    pq ${(z)arg}
+  done
+}
+```
+
+It prints, for each argument, its token breakdown, similar to how the main
+loop of the `main` highlighter sees it.
+
+Testing the `brackets` highlighter
+----------------------------------
+
+Since the test harness empties `ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES` and the `brackets`
+highlighter interrogates `ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES` to determine how to highlight,
+tests must set the `bracket-level-#` keys themselves.  For example:
+
+```zsh
+ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES[bracket-level-1]=
+ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES[bracket-level-2]=
+
+BUFFER='echo ({x})'
+
+expected_region_highlight=(
+  "6  6  bracket-level-1" # (
+  "7  7  bracket-level-2" # {
+  "9  9  bracket-level-2" # }
+  "10 10 bracket-level-1" # )
+)
+```
+
+Testing the `pattern` and `regexp` highlighters
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Because the `pattern` and `regexp` highlighters modifies `region_highlight`
+directly instead of using `_zsh_highlight_add_highlight`, the test harness
+cannot get the `ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_STYLES` keys.  Therefore, when writing tests, use
+the style itself as third word (cf. the
+[documentation for `expected_region_highlight`](docs/highlighters.md)).  For example:
+
+```zsh
+ZSH_HIGHLIGHT_PATTERNS+=('rm -rf *' 'fg=white,bold,bg=red')
+
+BUFFER='rm -rf /'
+
+expected_region_highlight=(
+  "1 8 fg=white,bold,bg=red" # rm -rf /
+)
+```
+
+Memos and commas
+----------------
+
+We append to `region_highlight` as follows:
+
+
+```zsh
+region_highlight+=("$start $end $spec, memo=zsh-syntax-highlighting")
+```
+
+That comma is required to cause zsh 5.8 and older to ignore the memo without
+ignoring the `$spec`.  It's a hack, but given that no further 5.8.x patch
+releases are planned, it's been deemed acceptable.  See issue #418 and the
+cross-referenced issues.
+
+
+Miscellany
+----------
+
+If you work on the driver (`zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh`), you may find the following zstyle useful:
+
+```zsh
+zstyle ':completion:*:*:*:*:globbed-files' ignored-patterns {'*/',}zsh-syntax-highlighting.plugin.zsh
+```
