" The start of match (b:SOM) default is:

" The end of match (b:EOM) default is:
"       '\>'

" If you want to use some other start/end of match, just assign the
" value to the b:SOM|EOM variable in your filetype script.

" Function To Build b:match_words
" The following function, 'AppendMatchGroup', helps to increase
" readability of your filetype script if you choose to use matchit.
" It also precludes many construction errors, reducing the
" construction to simply invoking the function with the match words.
" As an example, let's take the ubiquitous if/then/else/endif type
" of construct.  This is how the entry in your filetype script would look.
"
"     " source the AppendMatchGroup function file
"     runtime ftplugin/AppendMatchGroup.vim
"
"     " fill b:match_words
"     call AppendMatchGroup('if,then,else,endif')
"
" And the b:match_words constructed would look like:
"
"     \<if\>:\<then\>:\<else\>:\<endif\>
" 
" Use of AppendMatchGroup makes your filetype script is a little
" less busy and a lot more readable.  Additionally, it
" checks three critical things:
"
"      1)  Do you have at least 2 entries in your match group.
"
"      2)  Does the buffer variable 'b:match_words' exist?  if not, create it.
"
"      3)  If the buffer variable 'b:match_words' does exist, is the last
"          character a ','?  If not, add it before appending.
" 
" You should now be able to match 'if/then/else/endif' in succession
" in your source file, in just about any construction you may have
" chosen for them.
"
" To add another group, simply call 'AppendMatchGroup again.  E.G.:
"
"      call AppendMatchGroup('while,do,endwhile')

" TODO:  Write a wrapper to handle multiple groups in one function call.
"        Don't see a lot of utility in this as it would undoubtedly warrant
"        continuation lines in the filetype script and it would be a toss
"        up as to which is more readable: individual calls one to a line or
"        a single call with continuation lines.  I vote for the former.
