Yes. I feel like having understood this.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to understand this. I tried to twiddle 
the filetypes.pascal settings. Looking at the original file, the style 
list is

[styling]
> # foreground;background;bold;italic
> default=0x000000;0xffffff;false;false

I am allowed to adjust the style "word", but I am not allowed to 
introduce a new line

word2=0xsomething

right?

If I was a C programmer, for instance, I were lucky and could adjust 
both predefined styles, "word" and "word2", right?

If it's that easy, just throw a couple of

word*....

lines in all filetype specs, please!

But don't forget to update the manual, how I am supposed to assign these 
styles in my [keywords] section :)
