When the "Comment" character is part of the syntax Dear Yutaka,
In Perl at least, sometimes the comment character '#' is a part of the syntax. EE does ignore its commenting-out nature when it is part of a string. However, at least in the following example it does color the rest of the line as comment: my @list = ('string 1', 2, 4, 'string 2'); for my $i (0 .. $#list) { ... } everything beyond the '#' is colored 'comment'. Did I missed a feature again...?

Re: When the "Comment" character is part of the syntax Hello,
This is because '#' is defined as a Line Comment on the Highlight (2) tab of Perl configuration properties. You can remove the '#' from the Line Comment text box. This is the only way to solve the issue. Thanks!

Re: When the "Comment" character is part of the syntax Perl is too messy, use Python.
This will solve a problem. |
