Evergreen and ruby's flexible quoting (1719/3257/1.6.0_13-b03/Linux 2.6.35.13-weta-20110808/amd64 x2)

[Chris Reece]

See attached image. Evergreen shows cunfused syntax highlighting and
auto-indentation when it encounters flexible quotes using %{}.

Cheers,

Chris.

this will be harder to fix. the PAbstractLanguageStyler isQuote method
would need to be more sophisticated, so you give it a CharSequence and
an index and ask "does a quote start here?", and you'll also need it
to give you either "and here's what you're looking for to recognize
the end" or "and here's the end index".

alternatively, you could try to add more hacks to PRubyTextStyler
along the lines of the one for regular expression literals. (see
initStyleApplicators.)

Yeah, I saw that as I was digging around for the symbol-highlighting thing.
To an humble sysadmin, that looks bloody horrendous.

I'll put that one on my TO DO pile.

Neither of these are show-stopper, obviously -- I just thought I'd mention them.

Cheers,

Chris.

fwiw, i don't like it either. there have been several times i've got
as far as that code and then stopped because i wasn't _that_ bothered.
