Unable to backward delete a single " in strict mode

[pronobis]

When in strict mode (in elsip), when for some reason a single " character appears, it is not possible to delete the character backward using sp-backward-delete-char

Single character where? Inside another string? Because otherwise you simply can't tell it is single, that's how emacs syntax works.

I meant a single character outside a string, basically when that character opens a string that ends at the EOF and not with another ".

[Fuco1]

Yea, because in that case emacs still reports it as a paired delimiter. Though that particular case is simple to solve, we can just check the point-max and see if it's in a string or not.

That makes sense.
