Oh! Erlang, the 1986 functional programming language from
Ericsson for concurrent/distributed real-time
high-availability, or massively scalable soft real-time
systems ... *buzz*

Maybe start with something simpler and see if you get that to
work, and then advance from there ...

E.g. from markdown-mode.el (GNU Emacs 29.0.50)

(defun markdown-syntax-propertize-blockquotes (start end)
  "Match blockquotes from START to END."
  (save-excursion
    (goto-char start)
    (while (and (re-search-forward markdown-regex-blockquote end t)
                (not (markdown-code-block-at-pos (match-beginning 0))))
      (put-text-property (match-beginning 0) (match-end 0)
                         'markdown-blockquote
                         (match-data t)))))
