Re: Mode Definitions: Escaping literal delimiters without using "\"

The fortran mode file defines literals like this:

<SPAN TYPE="LITERAL1" NO_LINE_BREAK="FALSE">
<BEGIN>"</BEGIN>
<END>"</END>
</SPAN>
<SPAN TYPE="LITERAL1" NO_LINE_BREAK="FALSE">
<BEGIN>'</BEGIN>
<END>'</END>
</SPAN>

Is that what you're looking for?
