Screenshot: syntax highlighting before and after the backticks
BASH: Syntax highlighting didn't handle backticks properly
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
In a BASH script which I wrote long time ago I have this line:
if [ 0 -eq `id -u` ];
When I open this script with Kate the syntax highlighting for the rest of the
BASH file isn't realy conclusive. In other words: it is totally broken. This
was working properly before Kate twenty something appears. Now is not so nice -
or let me say: rubbish.
Backticks are old and busted in the BASH language but they are still working
and in a lot of our servers scripts present.
