PEP 695 type parameters are not colored correctly #6942
Description
Awesome to have syntax highlighting for PEP 695 type aliases. However, type parameter are still missing unfortunately.
from typing import Generic, TypeVar T = TypeVar("T") class X(Generic[T]): def __init__(self, var: T) -> None: ... class Y[T]: def __init__(self, var: T) -> None: ...

It's even worse on function-scoped generics since the arrow becomes red

Rechecked this in the current prerelease on a fresh VS Code session using the generated repro workspace, with
editor.semanticHighlighting.enabledstill set tofalse.The behavior from the original report is no longer reproducing:
Ttokens inclass Y[T]anddef foo[T](...) -> Tare colored distinctly again, consistent with the older generic syntax path->arrow no longer falls back to the error-like/plain-text styling from the original screenshotGiven that fresh rerun result, I’m closing this as no longer reproducible in current builds.
