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](https://github.com/geany/geany/blob/master/ctags/parsers/php.c)). 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).
