Description:
Color coding of strings does not work when the string delimiter is escaped within the string, e.g.

How to repeat:
1. Open up the Query Browser and open any new or existing script in the Script Editor.
2. Utilize any string that escapes the delimiter within the string, e.g.,

/*
MYSQL BUG REPORT

String don't color code escapes properly
*/

update `table_name` set `text_value`='some string with an apostrophe (\') in it';

Suggested fix:
implement the full set of syntactical string rules for color coding.

Sorry, but QB is NOT supported on Mac OS X (check http://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms/tools.html), so there is no chance for this bug to be fixed.
