- * The idea is to scan the current lexer data, and

- * yes = we are in a javascript comment text, either type,
- *       or are within quotes, either single or double
- * no  = Not in any of the above.
- *
- * This is to avoid tidy finding tags in quoted or comment text.

- * Controlled by option --skip-quotes yes|no, enum as
- * TidySkipQuotes, off by default.
