Hi! Is it possible to edit a syntax files so a keyword that appears within comments section in a different colour to the comments?
like this
REM DESCRIPTION: this is a new file

... from the resounding silence that would be a no, then.

The trouble is that it doesn't make sense. By definition, a sequence of letters which would constitute a keyword outside of a comment, is just part of a comment when in a comment.
I realize what you want, but it does not make sense as part of syntax highlighting. You want a different feature, for example a "continuous find" which can highlight multiple targets all through a file regardless of where the current selection.
And TP doesn't have that.
