Ruby: fix RegExp after ": " and fix/improve detection of HEREDOC Summary: ## Allow regular expressions after ": " Related: bug 361875 Previously, after `text: `, `[]: ` or `$text=: ` regular expressions weren't highlighted (the `check_div_1` context prevents highlighting regex, similar to `NoRegExp` context in "javascript.xml"). Regular expressions are allowed there, so they will now be highlighted. {F6539652} ## Don't highlight HEREDOC in singleton class definition (operator <<) Now, after the keyword "class", Heredoc's will not be highlighted [1]. For example: {F6539653} Before, `<<Foo` was highlighted as Heredoc. I did some tests in Ruby 2.6.0, 2.5.1 and 2.3.8, and Heredoc isn't considered in the code: `class <<Foo`, `class <<21`, `class <<"Foo"` or `class <<-Foo`, so I can say that the fix is correct. ## Improvements in HEREDOC: * Add squiggly HEREDOC (introduced in Ruby 2.3) [2][3] For example: `<<~HEREDOC` * Backticks can surround identifiers [3]. Example: <<-`HEREDOC` * Improve highlighting of identifier quotes. Now you need to close quotes to highlight the HEREDOC. For example, HEREDOC was previously highlighted as: `<<"HEREDOC` , `<<HEREDOC"` I also added a modeline to force the use of tabs as an indentation, since the file uses tabs. **References:** * [1] Ruby/Rails Programming.
