WVDL>Syntax highlighting.. Interesting.. For which language??
The following is excerpted from the Colors.Doc file distributed with TSE.
COLORS was written by Ian Campbell.
    High speed assembler binaries integrated into COLORS provide the
    highest possible performance.  COLORS comes with many color template
    ".TSE" files.  A unique color template file is used for each file
    with a different extension.  If a color template file does not yet
    exist for your file types, then you can easily create your own!  ALL
    coloring is controlled by these color template files.
    Included color template files are:
        ADACOLOR.TSE                    - color template for ".ADA" ADA files
        ASMCOLOR.TSE                    - for ASSEMBLER ".ASM" files
        ASPCOLOR.TSE                    - for PROCOMM ASPECT script files
        BASCOLOR.TSE                    - for BASIC ".BAS" files
        BATCOLOR.TSE                    - for BATCH ".BAT" files
        BTMCOLOR.TSE                    - for 4DOS BATCH TO MEMORY ".BTM" 
files
          CCOLOR.TSE                    - for C ".C" files
        CBLCOLOR.TSE                    - for COBOL ".CBL" or ".COB" files
           COLOR.TSE                    - anything not defined elsewhere
        FORCOLOR.TSE                    - for FORTRAN ".FOR" files
        MODCOLOR.TSE                    - for MODULA-2 ".MOD" files
        PASCOLOR.TSE                    - for PASCAL ".PAS" files
        PRGCOLOR.TSE                    - for FOXPRO and DBASE ".PRG" files
          SCOLOR.TSE                    - for SAL ".S" files
        SIMCOLOR.TSE                    - for SIMPLE TELIX  ".SIM" script 
files
        SLTCOLOR.TSE                    - for SALT TELIX ".SLT" script files
        SYSCOLOR.TSE                    - for SYSTEM ".SYS" files
    Note that, in addition, ".H", ".HPP", ".CPP", and ".RC" files are
    all grouped together under the "CCOLOR.TSE" template.  If you wish
    to add to or modify these groupings, see the procedure
    "mResolveGroupExtensions" in the macro source file "COLORS.S" for
    more details.
    These template files may be modified to suit your own preferences,
    if required.
    Should you need to create your own unique color template file or
    modify an existing one, then please refer to the file "CUSTOM.DOC"
    for detailed information on how to do this.
As you can see, the implementation is both faily complete and flexible.
I think I recall seeing a color template for more obscure editing (like
instrumentation microprocessor assembly code for a PC based cross-compiler).
Regards,
Mike Chambers
