Description

The shell syntax highlighting does not behave as expected after the first double quote of a string that follows an output redirection (line 200 on the screenshot below).
All the rest of the file is somewhat coloured as a string (green).
Please find the following screenshot from Atom:

For comparison, here's also a screenshot from gedit of the same file, to show how the syntax highlighting look:

(Copyright note: the code snippet shown in the screenshots above is from the script "multicrop" for ImageMagick by Fred Weinhaus, found at http://www.fmwconcepts.com/imagemagick/index.php)

After some trials, it seems that removing >&2 fixes the highlighting. So, the syntax is coloured correctly if that is deleted. In the steps below you find a snipped i used for trials.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Take this snippet of code:

functs()
    {
    echo >&2 ""
    echo >&2 "$USER:" "$PATH"
    echo >&2 'this' "that"
    }

2. Paste it in Atom, select "Shell Script" as sysntax highlighitng
3. You'll see that after the first double quote of the first string after >&2 everything is green, a part from variables
4. To verify what should be the behaviour, paste the same snippet in gedit and highlighting for "sh" does hold the desired result
5. When the string >&2 is removed, sometimes the systax is highlighted correctly again.
