Very observant of you, JavaFan - I misinterpreted my editor's change in highlighting colour inside the slashes which was due to the fact that the quote contained a variable, not a syntax error. Please ignore my comment on the syntax error.	[reply]

I don't know a single editor that can properly syntax-highlight arbitary perl code. Some editors are rather clever, but some are already confused when the code contains POD. Quotes in regular expressions with slash-replacements confuse all editors I know.

Quotes in regular expressions with slash-replacements confuse all editors I know. You must not know Scintilla based editors (scite/notepad++...) or jEdit :)	[reply]
