If I were writing a syntax highlighting feature, I wouldn't implement it as a bot, I would do it as a gadget. As you say, if it is to work while the user is typing, then the process that highlights the syntax needs to know about the keystrokes. So a robot would have to know about keystrokes as they come across. That's a lot of network communication. However, a gadget can highlight syntax with no extra network communication.
