(From Rich Kilmer)
This is actually an issue with the Ruby lexer that is included
in scintilla itself and written in C. It would probably not be
too bad an idea to have someone actually work on this lexer and
make it also better support regular expressions (which do not
syntax highlight either. We could submit this back to Neil Hodgson
(<nhodgson@bigpond.net.au>) and he could include it in
the scintilla distro as well as the SciTE distro.

I am not the best person to work on this C code though...perhaps
Curt could look at it?
