Invalid regex in grammar: lookbehind assertion is not fixed length

[lildude]

👋 I'm the lead maintainer of the https://github.com/github/linguist library which is used for language detection and providing the syntax highlighting for languages on GitHub.com, and we use this grammar.

Our grammar compiler has found a problem with your grammar which I thought I'd let you know about.

This regex is invalid as the lookbehind assertion is not a fixed length (offset 25):

vscode-yara/yara/syntaxes/yara.tmLanguage.json

Line 375 in abd7b64

"match": "(?<=(^|[\\)]|\\b(?:them)\\b))(?:\\s*):(?=\\s*(\\(|$))"

This is the error our compiler reported:

Invalid regex in grammar: source.yara (in yara/syntaxes/yara.tmLanguage.json) contains a malformed regex (regex "(?<=(^|[\)]|\b(?:them)\b))(?:\s*...": lookbehind assertion is not fixed length (at offset 25))
