Not to mention my own favorite syntax-highlighting-editor-confusers  $#array (highest index of @array) and the  $# special variable!

    seriously ... which editors?

    I somehow remember emacs having problems with s### 10 years ago with a then antique perl-mode...

      seriously ... which editors?
      Just look at syntax highlighting. They all have code snippets where they highlight it the wrong way.
        hmm?

        ... yesterday I tested gedit and geany, even vim got it right ... ;-)

        Cheers Rolf

      Nothing so sophisticated as emacs. Basically, editors, not terribly modern, designed to be most at ease in C/C++/Java and the like; can't remember specifically just which one(s) just now.
