I want to rely as much as possible on the pre-built schemas, but to add my own keywords to be highlighted in a new color dynamically at runtime. Currently the only way I can figure out how to do this is to create a whole new schema and pass it to SetSyntaxAndColorScheme(). Is there any way to add a new sub-lex class without having to start at the beginning? A secondary idea would be if I could ask CodeJock what file is the one being used currently, then I could load it and add my own stuff at the end (though I'd still have troubles knowing what lex class to make my parent).

Thanks,
Nathan
