When using a backslash (\) within a string in the following code snippet, the syntax highlighting incorrectly disrupts subsequent lines. The issue occurs specifically when defining a string with a backslash, as demonstrated below:

DECLARE SUB func ()
DECLARE SUB func2 ()
DECLARE SUB func3 ()
DECLARE SUB func4 ()

'----------------> THE ISSUE OCCURS AFTER 'image$ = "dir\', due to the backslash \
image$ = "dir\" 

PRINT "Loading..."

DEFINT A-Z
DIM SHARED thanks(220 * 10)
DEF SEG = VARSEG(thanks(0))
BLOAD image$ + "thanks.ext", VARPTR(thanks(0))
DEF SEG

DIM SHARED thanks2(220 * 10)
DEF SEG = VARSEG(thanks2(0))
BLOAD image$ + "thanks2.ext", VARPTR(thanks2(0))
DEF SEG
