      What I want is (controlled by SCALAR and PARAM styles):

      enter image description here

      However, with quotes ("), everything becomes (controlled by STRING style):

      enter image description here

      How do I make the 2 undermost lines get the highlighting, as per above?

        Hello @Daniel-Davis,

        afaik, you can’t as this is a builtin function of the bash lexer. If you want to change
        it you need to rewrite the code for that part.

        Cheers
        Claudia
