A recent change to the Perl bundle had the effect of highlighting large chunks of code as if they were match or replace statments. For example, it parses this line as if the slash were the start of a m/ regexp/ statement:
local $/;
It does the same to pretty much any line with a slash in it, for example when dividing two numbers.
As a workaround I've added '#/' as a comment to the end of these lines, but I'm hoping that's a very short-lived hack ;)
Many thanks in advance,
