Summary: Invalid Perl Identifier References

Initial Comment:
The attached zip file contains the result of doing an identifier search for char_2_int which gives references on lines 31, 32 and 52. However, the html.pl source file (also in the zip) shows char_2_int occurring on lines 44 and 72.

This occurs when using plain files with either MySql or PostGreSql as the database.

Message:
The issue occurred as a result of the following line in generic.conf for
the perl langmap:
    'atom'    => ('\$\W?',        ''),

The atom keyword in the language spec is normally used to ignore
characters such as \", \' and \# to prevent them from otherwise incorrectly
terminating other language specs such as strings and comments. However, the
above atom pattern matches perfectly normal things such as $! and $? which
don't seem to affect the other spec patterns. Certainly the perl parsing is
now much improved as a result of removing this line.
