This should probably be reported to Qscintilla upstream to be fixed in the Matlab/Octave lexer. Please do so, there is nothing that can be fixed in Octave except to wait for an updated Qscintilla release to fix this.

When using %{ %} for commenting a block in the editor and adding a comment next to %{ as displayed in the code below, the block will appear green on the editor but the code in the block will be executed. I know that we strictly have to use a new line so that this does not happen, but I find this misliding since we expect green text not to be executed.

CODE EXAMPLE:

%{ comment
i=3
%}
