There is a piece of code called CodeMax.  POV-Ray's editor uses
it.  It allows you to syntax hilight basically anything.  It
must have built-in support for C/C++, BASIC, HTML, etc because
the POV-Ray editor allows you to change to those modes.  But
POV-Ray also implimented their LANGUAGE.  I'd see no problem
looking into this.  You can STILL use FPE but with the syntax
hilighting...
