Hi, The recognition of syntax for highlighting is provided by the Scintilla lexers. These mostly hard-code the language they recognise. That is teh case with teh ASM lexer comment which is hard coded to semi-colon. The comment settings are for use by the edit->format->comment/uncomment operations not for the lexers.
