Was thinking about it.

It looks to me (being a dabbler, rather than a pro) like a BBEdit CLM solution might be fairly coarse in terms of differential highlighting. I *guess* the "real" BBEdit language modules are significantly more powerful, but I don't even look inside those.

There is a TextMate module:     

        <http://macromates.com/wiki/pmwiki?n=Main.Bundles>
        
which might:

        serve as a (temporary) substitute and/or
        
        provide a starting point for a BBEdit [C]LM
        
I'd have a look a go at this myself. It would need to wait for a wee while (heaps of academic papers, two sites and two other modules in prep), but put me down for it - if nobody else takes it up.
        
mark.
