@John and @JR, thanks, that helps. The edit manual Primary Commands, Hilite is a good starting point.
It looks to me like it is not user or vendor extensible. IBM ships support for 17 languages and that's it. Does anyone know any different?

I'm not sure the format is documented anywhere, but there are services to retrieve and change the settings. Basically, if you define PROFILE FOO (which is as simple as using it on the Edit or View entry panel), and you set up the profile as you wish, and use it for FOO files, "it should just work." But you probably know that much alreay. z/OS ISPF Edit and Edit Macros is where I'd start looking for more info.
