I tried adding syntax coloring to Ada programs. The results were very disappointing. Some of the reserved words were highlighted. Some were not. All indentation was lost. Am I required to put the highlighting tags around each line individually, or should I be able to apply syntax highlighting to a whole block of text? -- Waldorf
