Hi,

  I finally added the new syntax highlight code to xedit. The old builtin
C mode was removed, now it is done by the lisp interpreter, and the rules
can be changed in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xedit/lisp/progmodes/c.lsp. It does
not yet load any defaults from the user home directory, but is being done
in a way that will allow it in future versions.
  If you aren't using the current CVS, and likes hacking around, just
checkout the latest versions of xc/lib/Xaw and xc/programs/xedit and
recompile/install just these.
  I believe it should be very simple to understand the rules for creating
new syntax highlight definitions. If you do so, just don't forget to update
xedit.lsp to add a rule to the *auto-modes* list, so that the file will be
recognized when loaded. I would like to have a copy of such new syntax
highlight definition, to add it to the "oficial version".

  IF you were using the old c mode in a slow computer, you may notice that
it is now significantly slower to load the file. This is because it does
not yet render the syntax highlight in the background.

Paulo
