<p><a href="https://github.com/elextr" class="user-mention">@elextr</a>, no I don't agree, because I think it's not <code>_"</code> syntax: it's <code>_string</code> syntax :)<br>
Strings are enclosed by double quotation marks, for example Github is highlight correct, other editors too, but except Scintilla based. Why?<br>
Ok, <code>_</code> is part of words (<code>[A-Za-z_]+</code>), but <code>"</code> - no and editor should highlight the next string.<br>
For example C:</p>
<div class="highlight highlight-source-c"><pre><span class="pl-k">static</span> kindDefinition AwkKinds [] = {
        { <span class="pl-c1">true</span>, <span class="pl-s"><span class="pl-pds">'</span>f<span class="pl-pds">'</span></span>, ______________<span class="pl-s"><span class="pl-pds">"</span>function<span class="pl-pds">"</span></span>, __________<span class="pl-s"><span class="pl-pds">"</span>functions<span class="pl-pds">"</span></span> }
};</pre></div>
