Does not paint the "at" code as reserve word.
It is not a reserved word according to the documentation, but on this
specific case, it act as one imho.
According to my "Sprachgefühl" this cannot be anything other than a
reserved word. Its not an identifier, its not an operator, it can only
be a reserved word.
Do you think like me, that it should be painted on this case as a reserve
word ?

It does not matter how they are named. From a user point of view they
could be highlighted. Or at least as an option.
Such context sensitive stuff is already done in some places.
The problem is how the parser works. And each context addition adds to
the workload. It is enough, if one file contains them, for all to be
affected.
I do not think this one will be trouble, it depends what is added next.
Also I am not sure if it currently is worth the work (after all it must
ONLY be in that very specific context, the way the scanning works, the
scanner may only have a fragment of the statement when decision is due)
There are other things too:
1. Why SynPasHighlighter thinks that "contains" is a keyword (and
types it in bold)?
2. In declaration of external functions like the following
procedure P; external 'someLib' name 'someName';
the "name" is like a keyword. So it would be nice if it'll be in bold
font.
I have plans to make changes that could reduce those issues, but not
very soon...
