I apologize up front if this isn't the right place to mention forum issues.

 

I quite like the idea of prettified code, and am surprised such an update came out (any announcement about it being planned that I could check out?). But it's not quite ironed out. It looks like single and double quotes can span multiple lines unintentionally. Here's an example:

a:=0
b:=0
c:=0 ; Hey, it's the third line
d:=0
e:=0
f:=0 ; now it's the sixth line. Notice from the first single quote to the next it was all green?
g:=0
h:=0
i:=0 ; And here I am experimenting with a (") double quote
j:=0
k:=0
l:=0 ; And here's the closing (") double quote
m:=0
n:=0
o:=0 ; as well as `n and the like, and that doesn't even need to be in a comment

MsgBox `n yeah?

Also, is there any Notepad++ language that matches up with the forum's new coloring of code syntax?

Has it changed recently?  I'm pretty sure this is how it was when the forum was first moved to IP.Board, though maybe it has been disabled and re-enabled since then.  I don't pay much attention on this forum (I have a pretty low opinion of IP.Board in general).
 
IP.Board uses a JavaScript-based highlighter called "prettify", but we appear to have only the SQL and CSS modules.  I don't have sufficient access to disable it, but if you use an ad blocker or user-script manager (like GreaseMonkey/TamperMonkey), it's pretty easy.
 
To disable it with an ad blocker, block the following:

http://autohotkey-dequeue.netdna-ssl.com/board/public/js/3rd_party/prettify/*

To disable it from a user-script, you can use the following:

$$('.prettyprint').each(function(item) {
    item.addClassName('prettyprinted');
})

The following can be used to implement a very basic highlighter, which does not recognize any keywords:

PR.registerLangHandler(
      PR.createSimpleLexer([], [
          [PR.PR_COMMENT, /^;.*|^\/\*[\s\S]*?\r?\n\s*\*\//],
          [PR.PR_STRING, /^".*?"/],
          ['var', /^%[\w#@$]+%/],
          [PR.PR_PUNCTUATION, /^[%<>=/|^,:*&~!()\[\]{}.+\-*&!?~]/],
          [PR.PR_TAG, /^`./],
      ]), ['ahk']);

$$('.prettyprint').each(function(item) {
    // Override the CSS class, which is usually "prettyprint lang-auto" but sometimes
    // has an invalid class like just "lang-", probably depending on the bbcode tag.
    item.className = 'prettyprint lang-ahk';
})

These both work on page load (or at least, TamperMonkey works on page load), so do not apply to quick-replies or quick-edits.
