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

    Just look at syntax highlighting. They all have code snippets where they highlight it the wrong way.

      hmm?

    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.
