I don't believe you'll be able to use the "hilite" function itself as it
apparently can highlight only a single contiguous chunk. What I've used in
the past is 'the foreColor of line x of member("fieldMember")' or
'member("textMember").line[x].color'
If you want a more "highlighted" look, you may be able to use functions
such as charPosToLoc() to determine the coordinates for shape sprites that
could overlay the text. That sounds challenging, but could be doable.
