"		Dmitry Vasiliev
"
"		This version is a major rewrite by Zvezdan Petkovic.
"
"		- introduced highlighting of doctests
"		- updated keywords, built-ins, and exceptions
"		- corrected regular expressions for
"
"		  * functions
"		  * decorators
"		  * strings
"		  * escapes
"		  * numbers
"		  * space error
"
"		- corrected synchronization
"		- more highlighting is ON by default, except
"		- space error highlighting is OFF by default
"
" Optional highlighting can be controlled using these variables.
