Re: [ jEdit-devel ] RFC: Syntax highlighting and the ESCAPE rule

Hi Marcelo,

I just got my build environment for trunk (pre12) operational again so
now I can test it. It was a bit more tricky than usual since I have to
use different settings/plugins for trunk vs pre11, but I will try it
out with different edit modes that I am accustomed to and let you
know. Thanks again for your attention to detail.
