Bug#373649: enscript sh and ksh highlighting problem with escaped quotes

[Shawn McMahon]

Package: enscript
Version: 1.6.4-7

Binary package hint: enscript

Take the following script:

#!/usr/bin/ksh
echo \"foo=bar\"/\"baz=quux\"
echo "and here's some other stuff"
for i in foo bar baz quux
do
  echo $i
done

...which I've also attached. In gview, those escaped double-quotes are
handled properly, and syntax hightlighting works. With enscript, using
either sh or ksh highlighting, the first double-quote turns on the
highlighting for "this is quoted stuff", but the rest are ignored until
the first unescaped double-quote is encountered.

The enscript command line was "cat enscriptbug | enscript
--highlight=ksh --color -r -p enscriptbug.ps"


Attached is a patch.  I submitted this bug in Malone since it affects
Ubuntu, and found that the package maintainer listed there is an
invalid debian.org address; might want to address that too.  Also
submitted to gnu.org, but no response.
