Perl sytax patch for \n and .

Hello,

I have made some minor improvement to the syntax highlighting for perl 
scripts.
The improvements are highlighting for \n inside double quotes and highlight 
for "." ( used in perl to join strings ).
These are very minor but are very handy when writing in perl.

This is a diff file patched against the latest CVS ( ran diff with -c so 
that the context of the changes can be seen )
===============
*** perl.syntax.cvs 2005-05-04 10:01:31.000000000 +1200
--- perl.syntax 2005-05-04 10:02:58.000000000 +1200
***************
*** 90,95 ****
--- 90,96 ----

keyword ] brightcyan
keyword , brightcyan
+ keyword . brightcyan 
keyword .. brightcyan
keyword : brightcyan
keyword ; brightmagenta
***************
*** 349,354 ****

context " " green
keyword \\" brightgreen
+ keyword \\n brightgreen
keyword \\\\ brightgreen
context ' ' brightgreen
keyword \\' green
===========

Thanks,
