#1893 Bug comments Language Cobol columns 7

[federico]

Hello
I found a bug in the comment display using the Cobol of notepad ++ language
the problem occurs when you insert a tag from position 1 to position 6 and in position 7 there is an asterisk; in this condition the comment is not colored in green.
however, it only happens in these conditions, in fact, if the tag is long from position 1 to 5 and in position 6 is one space is displayed correctly.
example:
ABCDE * Comment colored in green
ABCDEF* Comment NOT colored in green

how you can intervene?

thank you

Maintenance of particular languages depends on contributions from users of that language. Reporting a problem here may result in a fix but its possible that no fix is forthcoming or it may be some time before a fix.

Just checked, but if this ever fixed, whoever does so, should also include a slash (/) as a comment in position 7. This is also a comment (albeit with a throw to a new page in the old days of printing via a system printer)
