$ doesn't work nicely when its used as part of a data statement ie:
Data.b 1,2,3
Data$ "a string"
Because $ is of syntax class "w" it is considered part of the preceding Data statement, which then fails to trigger the keyword highlighting. If I change the syntax class to "'" it works but then breaks keywords with $ in such as Inkey$, because Emacs no longer considers $ to be part of a word.
For now, I have added a keyword "Data$" which is better than nothing, but really the $ in Data$ should be a type.
