the preprocessor behavior behind the # has been changes a
few version ago. it used to highlight everything behind the

. now it just highlights the text before the whitespace.

I don't know, if this was a wanted behavior or if it's a
small glitch, that came in a few versions back.

Hi,

this isn't really a bug, but the preprocessor thingy needs a bit
finetuning, to only colorize the #if directive instead of the
whole line.

OK, changed the 2nd case from this example.

It only highlights "#if" now, instead of the entire first line.
