Conditional highlighting?

Hi guys,
Do you think is it possible to create a .syn file that highlights strings ("i am a string") longer than X characters?

If that is the case, can you link me to a complete manual on syntax highlight files?

I don't think a macro would do the trick, I'd really only like to highlight the text.
Thanks

Sorry, this functionality is not available in TextPad. There have been requests in the past for the ability to do highlighting based on columns, hooray FORTRAN, but it's never really caught fire.
