Title: gedit highlights indexes of multidimensional arrays as comments in Perl mode Status in gtksourceview4 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In gedit's Perl highlight mode, variables of all kinds ($var, %hash, @array etc.) are highlighted in dark green. The same usually works for the last index of an array as well ($#array) but only if the array is one-dimensional. With multidimensional arrays, the proper syntax is more complicated: $#{$array[0]} should give the last index of the first element of an array of arrays. Here gedit however interprets the number sign (#) as the mark of a comment and highlights the rest of the line in blue. The expected behavior would be to highlight $#{$array[0]} in dark green like all other variables. See the attached screenshot.
