C++/C/C# syntax highlighting uses dsSpecialString for normal "String Char"s?
Closed, WontfixPublic

Description

The C++ syntax highlighting .xml file is presumably a reference to how syntax highlighting should be defined, given that Kate and I assume most pf KDE it written in C++. Why does the highlighting .xmls for these languages use dsSpecialChar for normal character in strings ("String Char" itemData), surely dsString should be used for normal chars in a string, and dsSpecialChar for escape sequences?

The description of <HlCStringChar> I had was wrong. Should be called <HlCEscapedChar>!
