Re: strange regexp in postscript-mode

Gunnar> - '("(\\([^)]\\|\\\\.\\|\\\\\n\\)*)" Gunnar> + '("(\\([^)]*\\))" . font-lock-string-face) I don't think those are completely equivalent, though perhaps the second one will work fine... The first one matches anything that starts with a paren, and then things up to another paren including \. escapes and \ line continuations. The second expression doesn't handle escapes or line continues... but perhaps that's not really required anyhow. I've not learned much postscript yet. :-)
