thank you for the screenshot. though i do wonder, what exactly is it highlighting? "in programming terms," - why is programming a verb and what good does it do

  Because it's as naive an implementation as it can be, as I said. Programming can be a verb and a noun, and it just happens they have it tagged as a verb -- context and syntax be damned. (Or actually, it's Apple's API that does the tagging. They just take advantage of it, and do the oh-so-difficult work of highligting the tagged words) Unlike, say, Word's "syntax correct" feature, "Syntax Control" has very little to do with recognising syntax.
