Title:
  syntax highlighting of single-quoted strings

Status in Mudlet:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  This is more a feature request than a bug report. The syntax highlighting in the script editor currently recognizes double-quoted and multiline strings ("string" and [[string]]) but not single-quoted ones ('string'), which are also valid in Lua. From a look at the code, it should be a simple addition to THighlighter.cpp:
  54    rule.pattern = QRegExp( "'[^']*'" );
  55    rule.format = quotationFormat;
  56    highlightingRules.append( rule );

  Line numbers from my current version of the source, a git snapshot
  from 1/25/2012.
