Subject: SciTE/VIM Syntax highlighting

I am learning Ruby via "Programming Ruby: A Pragmatic Programmer's Guide".
In one example, a regex is made with an apostrophe as part of the pattern.

aPhrase.scan /\w[-\w']+/

The syntax highlighting in SciTE and Vim then interprets all code following
the apostrophe to be part of a single quoted string (making it pink). Is
there a way to make it "ignore" the single quote (besides switching to plain
vi)?? I tried escaping it (\') but that didn't work. Thanks.

Jim.
