Rather than using the `<>`-as-glob-operator you might see if it handles the equivalent glob version (e.g. `glob( "$ARGS[0]/TXT//.clean" )`; I'd prefer that anyhow as it's clearer than the diamond form). The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie. The cake is a lie.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Other potential work-around solutions (after you try Fletch's suggestion): File::Glob Try to determine, by trial and error, which character is considered "unbalanced", according to your editor. Then try to add that character in a comment after the code. For example, if the editor is unhappy with an odd number of slashes, then this may fix it: `my $numfdel = unlink <$ARGS[0]/TXT//.clean>; # /` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Don't forget to check if the bug has been reported before, and, if not, report it: http://bugs.activestate.com/ -- Online Fortune Cookie Search Office Space merchandise	[reply]

I personally believe that since "nothing but perl can parse Perl," it can't be exactly described as a bug: more of a feature request, and in this sense it may be doable. (ISTR that for my text editor of choice, for example, it wouldn't be, unless one modified the whole SH mechanism, that is...) `--` If you can't understand the incipit, then please check the IPB Campaign.

It isn't exactly parsing perl :) besides Scintilla (among others) handles this just fine :)	[reply]

Is there any way I can fix the highlighting issue with this. 1) report bug to Komodo IDE 2) turn hilighting off (coding around hilighting bugs is dubious )	[reply]
