Euphoria syntax hilighting in Notepad is something of a problem. Notepad uses the Scintilla edit component in which much of the hilighting is done by a lexer which is a part of the Scintilla dll. This works well for languages that are supported by Scintilla. Euphoria is not, so it is necessary to use a lexer that is close. As a result syntax hilighting is not going to be 100% correct.
There is a Euphoria editor in the archives that uses a custom Scintilla DLL that has a Euphoria lexer. I expect that this would work with Notepad but have not tried it. This DLL also predates Euphoria 4 so that may cause some hilighting issues.
