yaml syntax highlighting of single-quoted strings incorrect

[miiichael]

Within single-quote YAML strings, backslashes are not special. This means
ne (and joe) currently highlights this incorrectly:

'\' (a single backslash) is not the same as "\" (an incomplete double-quoted
string). Only ' is special inside single-quoted strings, by my understanding.

You are correct. Please try the syntax/yaml.jsf file from the yaml-strings branch (here) and let us know what you think.

Yes, much better.
