      When using a theme “Bespin” or not using a theme I would like to have certain words highlighted, or in a different color.

      1. How to (non select) highlight a single word?
        Like how a word editor lets you put a highlight color behind the word, or allows the color of the word to be selected then changed.

      2. How to Color individual words or characters?
        Not a theme, only some words need to be different colors.
        ~ cheers!

              @AZJIO-AZJIO Do you have plans to publish your plugin at github or sourceforge?

                Sounds like what you want is maybe “Poorman regex based styler/lexer”
