Hey BBEdit fans,

I do a lot of text editing for files destined for a custom CMS. This is 
basically HTML, but with some additional custom formatting tags and 
keywords, and it would be useful for me to extend the syntax highlighting 
for my needs to show these.

What I would like to do is start with the HTML syntax highlighting, but add 
in these additional tags and keywords - I'm not sure how best to approach 
this.

I had a look at building/customising a codeless language module. This lets 
me highlight my own terms but doesn't seem to handle new XML-style tags (it 
doesn't recognise <> as delimiters not matter what I tried) and in any 
case, the codeless stuff seems to be more intended for code highlighting, 
rather than HTML-type formats, as far as I can see.

I couldn't find a way to duplicate and modify the HTML syntax highlighting, 
so I expect it's something built into BBEdit and thus I can't really get at 
it.

Any tips or advice on how feasible this is? I'm having a dig around the 
various language docs, but if anyone has anything helpful to suggest, I'd 
appreciate it.

Thanks!
