@jan: Do you mean the highlighter for PHP code? I'm only using CPP highlighter because I'm C/C++ software developer. My strong feeling is, it has something to do with
'else' and curly brackets {}, because the garbage is either (in my case) after a closing } or where an 'else' is. -- <https://forum.pspad.com/read.php?4,73692,74121> PSPad freeware editor https://www.pspad.com
