bash heredoc highlighting should be fixed by Scintilla

schittli

Hello

As we know, Notepad++ had a problem highlighting heredoc in bash:

<<=cut
=pod
pod stuff
=cut

(There was already a discussion about it here: https://sourceforge.net/p/notepad-plus/discussion/331754/thread/465d7441/
the result was, that it’s a Scintilla bug)

And those fixes were added in Release 3.6.3 on January 18, 2016
http://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaHistory.html

Should the Scintilla bugfix automatically work in Notepad++ / does Notepad++ automatically use the latest Scintilla Release?

Thanks a lot in advance,
kind regards,
Tom
