Hi list,

end-of-string is not always recognized in shell-script-mode. If you open the
following in emacs 22.1.50.1:


M="$(g 1)${t:$(e 2):1}"
DESCRIPTION="string"


then the last lines will be grey as if they are strings, and the string on
line 5 will be black instead of grey. If you remove the quotes from line 1:


M=$(g 1)${t:$(e 2):1}
DESCRIPTION="string"


then proper syntax highlighting is restored. Put the quotes back and it goes
wrong again.
