I hope you are all well,

In Jqt I notice syntax highlighting when an open parenthesis is connected at the end of a string. I haven't come across anything that describes this behavior. 
Can anybody direct me to where is it documented? I'm not quite sure what subject to search under.


Example:

     any_name(          NB. Highlighting 

     any_name (          NB. No Highlighting 


Thanks.

Thanks for the report. Highlighting any_name( doesn't describe any relevant J syntax, so it is removed for the next beta.

In the meantime we are working on improved highlighting for Jqt which is already available in JHS, J Guest server (press Esc-n to open new temp file in editor) and Juno.
