Bug Type: Strings related

New Comment:
So the newline character should be highlighted as a string and not as a
keyword.
If you will not fix this, change the state to Wont fix and not to
Bogus.

Because the lexer in PHP handles those cases different.
"$a\n" = quote + variable + newline character + quote
"a\n" = string
Try this script:
<pre>
<?php
highlight_string('<?php "a\n"; ?>');
var_dump(token_get_all('<?php "a\n"; ?>'));
highlight_string('<?php "$a\n"; ?>');
var_dump(token_get_all('<?php "$a\n"; ?>'));
?>
</pre>
(and leave this bug bogus)

Tell me a reason why \n should be highlighted as keyword in "$a\n" and
in "a\n" not.

You're wrong. The current behavior is correct.

I don't know what "1 string" is. Is "$a\n" also "1 string"? If it is,
there should not be \n highlighted in it.
The problem is that in "$a\n" is \n highlighted and in "a\n" isn't. I
believe that it should be consistent.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
This is how it supposed to work, "a\n" is 1 string.
