A while back, Mark Wieder posted a snippet of code that I use in my library
stack that does this very thing, calling some obscure IDE handlers:
-- colorize script
-- thanks to Mark Wieder, of the useRev listserv
-- how he figured this out, I don't know
put the number of lines of field "script" into tNum
-- the following 2 lines are only necessary if no script has been opened
yet in this
-- session of LC
-- and they will throw an error for later versions of LC
try
send "sePrefInit" to stack "revNewScriptEditor"
send "revSEColorize thisScript,default" to stack "revNewScriptEditor"
end try
_internal script colorize line 1 to tNum of field "script"
If this doesn't point you in the right direction, maybe Mark knows more.
