It is fairly easy to check for inconsistencies in Binary, Octal, and Hex

being integers, reals, and general format numbers (ie: #e+/-#) which are
all grouped into the "Decimal" category. I'll think about it though.
Maybe I can come up with something. :-)
Actually, as I was sitting here typing this it popped into my head that
such a test would actually fall under the Variable category rather than
the Decimal category since variables can start with any character or an
underscore; the opposite would be to start with something like a decimal
number. A possibility maybe. :-)
What /are/ you talking about?
If you're discussing syntax highlighting, numbers usually fall under
then Number group. Some syntax definitions highlight a leading zero
as Special, as it does have special meaning, as it in some languages
denotes an octal number.
I have no idea of what you mean by "inconsistencies".
