Hello List, After ages of consternation with viewing Java Properties files that had multiline values in KVPs not properly syntax colored, I have created a better language grammar for Java Properties.
It does several things... First it captures comments of course. Then single-line KVPs Then KVPs with dangling spaces or tabs between the key and the = sign. (These stand out awesomely during fast scrolling to find where they are and fix them) Then multi-line-value KVPs.
One can never be 100% sure of these things, but I feel fairly confident with it because the multi-line-value KVPs I have dealt with are actually HTML emails stored in KVPs. :)
By the way, it looks best in Sunburst them.
Please consider it for inclusion.
zipped for your unzipping pleasure.
Thanks, John Joyce

If you submit a pull request for https://github.com/textmate/java.tmbundle I'll happily include it.
Thanks!
