Komodo Cucumber String Highliting

When writing a scenario in Cucumber using Komodo Edit, is it possible to use a single quote without Komodo interpreting it as a string syntax?

Example:

Scenario: The man's laptop turns on

The standard Cucumber syntax highlighting will highlight everything after the single quote until the next single quote or end of file as a giant string. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Solution

  • I haven't been able to figure out a way of doing this without making code changes to the plugin.

    I created a fork of ccaroon's original repo that disables single-quote strings altogether. This solves the problem for me.

    You will have to build the extension per the README.md. On Linux you can find koext in <komodo-install-dir>/lib/sdk/bin/. It's likely similar on other platforms.
