Usually, a few countermeasures can reduce this to end of the line only. E.g., from one of my scripts:
$grutte= -s( "$bank.fb"); #; # But indeed, it's irritating to have the text mishighlighting. I've been looking at where we can customize the language highlighting, but I can't find it. So, as I read whole file contents a lot, and therefor need to get the file size, this is to me an ever present annoyance. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/631856 Title: perl syntax highlighting doesn't work for "-s" Status in Light-Weight Text Editor for Gnome: New Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: gedit Code: while ( (not -e "$omg") or (-s "$omg" < 71) ) { getstore($img, $omg); } Everything after (-s "$omg" < 71) gets highlighted even though the code is correct.
