Tony, thank you for the comment.

I prefer "decoration" names instead the "functional" ones
since the last can lead to mishmash. See for, example,
list of duplicates extracted from built-in "functional"
highlighting styles.

	Operator:dark blue:Bold\n\
	Bracket:dark blue:Bold\n\

	Preprocessor:RoyalBlue4:Plain\n\
	Identifier1:RoyalBlue4:Plain\n\
	Text Arg2:RoyalBlue4:Plain\n\

	String:darkGreen:Plain\n\
	Character Const:darkGreen:Plain\n\
	Numeric Const:darkGreen:Plain\n\
	LaTeX Math:darkGreen:Plain\n\

I think, that the pattern set must be extended by errors patterns.
Unfortunately, I cannot write such a patterns as have no
programming practice.
