Thanks. I got a build working and have tested it out. It seems that you've  
made a substantial change to the default syntax highlighting, both in the  
terms you use and their settings. Now, most of them I can fix to how I  
want, but the normal 'selected' settings are substantially better and more  
complex than a simple foreground and background color. Also, I'd strongly  
recommend keeping the current code::block standard highlighting if you're  
planning to have your trunk merged into the mainline tree.
