Re: [TxMt] qq|...| in Perl bundle

Oh… must have missed that note. This is actually a TM bug (which I wasn't aware of). It interprets special characters in the back- reference, resulting in | not being matched literally.

Darn it, I knew there was something wrong! :)

I'll fix that for 1.1b14 — until then, a special rule to handle | can be made, similar to the special rules for the brackets.

I tried a special rule

{ name = "string.quoted.double.q-pipe.perl"; begin = "\bq[qwx]*\|"; end = "\|"; patterns = ( { match = "(\b(.*)\b)"; } ); },

It didn't work either. Confusion.

best, Eric
