Syntax highlighting styles
I'm sure this has been brought up before, but I'm just wondering is it possible to changle styles (bold, italics, etc) for syntax highlighting? Is there a plan to ever add this feature in? I just thought it might be nice if it's at all possible.

Yeah,
That's the feature I'm also waiting for.
As far as I know it's a submitted feature request, but as you know it is not (yet?, c'mon Helios team - please give us bold, italics and the like for syntax highlighting...) implemented.
We'll have to wait for that...
As far as I see, if colouring is possible (and we know that it is), then other highlight possibilities shoube be possible, too.
Of course you can always shoot yourself in the foot using a ''suboptimal' implementation.
Happy programming,
Stephan

Re: Syntax highlighting styles
Bold and Italic are actually different fonts (stored in the same file) and they change the shape of the font, so there is a difference in implementing them. Text in a different color is still getting the letter shapes from the same location.
Bold and Italic would help differentiate more things, but I would prefer to have the ability for more than six groups of words in syntax files added first.
