perl syntax problem

Post by gani »

Hi,
I have a perl syn file in the samples folder, and it works -- except that the perl variable for the ubound of an array (i.e. $#temp for @temp) gets highlighted as a comment from the #.
I looked for $# in the perl3upd.syn file and it is in a section called keywords 3, which I am guessing should take care of this.
Any suggestions for correcting this, or is it a known issue? I apologize if I am rehashing old news, but I didn't find anything on this in my searches.
TIA,
Gani

Keith,
Thank you for the information. My main use for Textpad will be for Perl. I have been evaluating it for a few days, and like it except for that issue.
