I'm working on that syntax definition file like I said I would, and there's only one thing I can't figure out.

I have a string definition:
[PHP String1]
Type=StartStop
Context=6
Scope=1
Priority=0
WholeWordOnly=1
First="
Last="
Background=Default
Foreground=FF0000

Now, in many languages you can typically escape the string wrapper character (in php \"). So, how can I get \" to not end the string syntax defined?

$test = "testing\"escape";
This doesn't seem to work, and I've tried various methods to try and solve it. Wondering if anyone has a solution.

Hi,

There is no way in the present version of Twistpad to indicate what is the espace character.

However next version will include support to define what is the escape character in a syntax definition file.

Thanks,

That is great news. Looking forward to the next version!
