What would be most useful for me, and seems to work out pretty well in other apps is a set of "types" of text to get colored, and global defaults for those types (this may be what you were getting at with "(named) colors") For example:
Default Background Default Foreground Comments Constants Variable names Quoted Strings Function/Subroutine names etc...
...and then the syntax-highlight-definitions would call upon those types. Was that what you were getting at, or were you talking about something different?
At least this is something similar to what _I_ think is a good idea in the future.. perhabs not quite in that form, but.. something like that at least :-). I'll discuss it with Allan sometime also.
