I've made a note to investigate handling nested delimiter hiliting.  It =
seemed too complicated the first time I tried to implement it, but some =
of the fog is starting to lift .

BOY, do I like this!!!
I do have 1 thing to mention in reference to delimiter highlighting.  In
Pascal and Modula2 you can have nested comments but I notice that the
highlighter does not seem to recognize the following correctly.   There
probably isn't anything that can be done, just thought I mention it.
(*  Try typing this in and notice (* how the highlighting *) stopped
just before the word 'stopped' *)
Anyway,  THANKS!    I love this!!!
