Dollar should be part of identifiers about language-java

[noseglid]

Variables with $ is correctly highlighted now.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the "double-click" or ctrl-left to jump words is managed by the languages. @50Wliu ?
If not than this can be closed.

If not, it is a problem (with Atom itself) / they should be: these operations are based on the concept of "words", and this concept is tightly related to the language: $ is a good example here (valid in JS / Java, not in some other languages), but in other languages (CSS for example) dash is also part of identifiers (words), and so on. Idem for Unicode characters.

@PhiLhoSoft I totally agree. It should be part of the language definition. But as it is now, the rest of this issue (aside from highlighting) does not belong to this repo (if that is so).

In CSS, stuff like dashes in e.g. border-top behave the same way as how you're describing $ in java.

That's annoying, but indeed, if that's beyond your scope, please feel free to close the issue if you fixed what was within your reach.

It actually is. editor.nonWordCharacters can be modified by languages (and I have a local branch changing that). I think the Find and Replace "whole word" regex can't be changed though.

Cool, thanks for the correction!

I haven't understood the comment of @50Wliu until today, thanks to the comment atom/language-javascript#374 (comment)
So, we can at least fix that ourselves. Might be nice to be the default, though.
