Matlab comment symbol "%" does not work when it's at the beginning of a line #340

1. Matlab comment symbol "%" does not work when it's at the beginning of a line Here is the test page It recognize the first "%" of the line as a TAG, and a blank line is added after that.

2. Matlab use single quotation marks to do the matrix transposition, but it is always recognized as string.

Same for TeX

Confirming the same issues as yalewoo on this page. 1) % causes blank line to be added. 2) ' recognized as string rather than transpose operator.

Line 31 has: A = [-sum(k1) k2;k1(2:n+1)' -diag(k2)]; The single quote is the transpose operator and Crayon makes everything that follows green (comment) and reverts back to code after the next single quote several lines down the page. I can see that the solution has to the correct regex in this line STRING (?default) in this file: crayon-syntax-highlighter/langs/matlab/matlab.txt Can anyone offer the correct regex for this rule:

A single quotation character is a tranpose operator if it follows: right bracket ("]"), right parenthesis (")"), right brace ("}"), letter, digit, underline ("_"), punctuation mark ("."), or another single quote character ("'"). If the single quotation character follows anything else then it starts a string. Hope that helps.

Jeff Mandel has changed line 31 of the page link given in the previous post from: A = [-sum(k1) k2;k1(2:n+1)' -diag(k2)]; to: A = [-sum(k1) k2;transpose(k1(2:n+1))-diag(k2)]; which is a simple work around - the regex works fine for transpose(x) but not for x' (where everything to the right of the x' gets treated as a string up until the next '

The regex for comment in crayon-syntax-highlighter/langs/matlab/matlab.txt is: COMMENT (%.*?$) This should pick up comments with % at the beginning of the line as well as later in the line, but it doesn't (so far I'm unsuccessful in finding the reason)

Point 1 was posted earlier here: https://github.com/aramk/crayon-syntax-highlighter/issues/145 The second point above can be worked around with the transpose( ) function.
