For syntax highlighting, you will need to edit highlighting.c and add
the following things:

1. Write styleset_foo_init() to setup lexer styles and load style
settings from the filetypes.foo configuration file. You should probably
start by copying and adapting another filetype's initialization, such
as styleset_tcl_init(). Another way is to use load_style_entries()
to make style initialization simpler - see styleset_c_like_init().
.. note::
Please try to make your styles fit in with the other filetypes' default
colors, and to use named styles where possible. Filetypes that share a
lexer should have the same colors. Normally, styles should leave the
background color empty to match the default color.
2. Write styleset_foo() to apply styles when a new scintilla widget
is created. Again you could copy and adapt a function like
styleset_tcl().

5. Write data/filetypes.foo configuration file [styling] section. See
the manual and see data/filetypes.d for a named style example.
