There is at least one external goodie that provides non-intrusive
highlighting (i.e., without pretty-printing). I inherited the Squeak 1.x
changeset from Martin Wollenweber and carried it through to Squeak 2.x, see
<http://home.netsurf.de/helge.horch/squeak/syntaxcol.html>
for a snapshot. Bolot Kerimbaev kindly merged patches and enhanced it for
Squeak 3.1a, that changeset currently lives at
<http://fce.cc.gatech.edu/~bolot/squeak/opp/sq31-syntaxHighlighting.05Jun181
3.cs>
Cheers,
Helge
