Is there an editor that will syntax color-code perl multi-line quote strings as quote strings?

It doesn't exist :|

    Padre (well, Scintilla) knows to syntax-color double-quoted here-documents. It looks (somewhat) like this:

    $foo = <<PERL;
    bar is $bar
    PERL


    $baz = "blurb";

    cperl for Emacs handles multiline quoted strings and HERE docs quite right.
