PHP 7.3 has changed the Heredoc/Nowdoc syntax, so that the ending delimiter doesn't need to be at the beginning of a line, and can be followed by other expressions. the following examples are valid php code now:

<?php
    $var = <<<EOL
    this is a test
    EOL;

<?php
    $vector = [<<<EOL
    this
    is
    a
    test
    EOL, 'other value' ];

But both syntax examples are not properly parsed/highlighted on Geany.
I'm not sure if this is a Scintilla bug or a Geany bug - I can see Geany has a php parser, which today is unable to parse the new syntax (code is here). I tried to open a ticket on Scintilla about this, but I am not allowed to do so (looks like you need approval from the project owners to open a ticked there).
