#18 unmatched single quote paints everything below it as ID_SINGLE_STRING

This is because the hilite code is very simple and doesn't make sure there is a match before setting the fg color to ID_SINGLE_STRING. The solution would be to make the hilite logic check for a pair before coloring, if one is found then it will color.

Commits 7f66ad51f7 and 867a2e9e84 add in better highlighting.

Single quotes are only highlighted until the EOL. Since in most langs single quotes are either chars or single line strings.

Back quote is mostly unchanged but it will match with a closing single quote since the use of `foo' is common.

Double quote is consider single line as well unless the is a backslash followed by a newline char.
