Apostrophe (') while editing MATLAB not interpreted correctly.

[handdara]

Summary

In MATLAB the apostrophe can be used both to denote a string as well as perform conjugation/transposition on Matrices. The latter is not recognized in the syntax highlighting and leads to odd highlighting.

This is a common problem. Here is the same issue in another editor.

Reproduction Steps

This is very easy to reproduce, simply load up the following code in helix.

        K = [A+ Kse,     G   ;
                G.' ,  H + Kbt];
            
        nb = Kse*(v - [0;0;1]);
        mb = Kbt*u;

And you should get something that looks like
