Feature Request: Keyword files for Syntax changeable

If you would put the Keyword definitions in Subfolders this IDE would be also able to help to edit and compile Visual Basic Script, VBA, VB6 and Scriptbasic Programs :)

Now there is such a catalog of keywords: https://github.com/XusinboyBekchanov/VisualFBEditor/tree/master/Settings/Keywords

Still need to consider how to implement this.

Just put 4 files into each subdirectory with the keywords of VBA VBS and so on. The directory means the "Language" Should be all :) Or in simple words make a dropdown to chose the Language eg The directory which contains the 4 word files That would be the fastest soloution to check it out. In the next step we just hafe to think about a way to thell the editor which language file he needs to use for the actual file shown to the user. A better way would be to store all those things in a sqlite file. At the moment i am working on such a database. Has the benefit that you can also show help files and other things. But for a quick start just make the dropdown for the directorys. Freebasic will be in the Freebasic subdirectory VBS in the VBS subdirectory and so on.
