In Stata, strings can begin with the two characters: `", end with the characters: "'. How can textmate recognise these as quotation marks? The following code in the Stata bundle won't work, because textmate doesn't parse the 'begin' and 'end' lines as I'd like it to. Instead it (understandably) complains that it finds a " where there should be a ; on the second line below. Is there some way to get textmate to recognise this quotation convention?
{ name = 'string.quoted.single.stata'; begin = "`""; end = ""'"; patterns = ( { name = 'constant.character.escaped.untitled'; match = '\.'; }, ); },
Any help much appreciated.

begin = "`"";
Maybe this is too obvious and you’ve already tried it, but what about this?
begin = "`"";

begin = "`\"";
I've tried
begin = "`""; end = "'"";
but when I hit test in the bundle editor, this reverts to
begin = '`"'; end = '''"';
which doesn't work...

That gives an 'Error parsing language grammar' error: "expecting """, found 'EOF' ". There's got to be some way to do this...

The rewritten form is identical to the input form.
If it doesn’t match `"…'" then there probably is another problem with the grammar. Try pastie all of it.
