I gave this some thought, I came up with a few ideas, but I feel I have a good suggestion. To avoid conflict with users that may actually be using $ style comments you could create and insert 1-2 new (ASM) languages into the user highlighters Add hexadecimal, and disable $ style comments for them (greying them out).
This might prove the safest method without conflict to current users. But you probably have a lot more to consider. No need to explain if this isn't a good idea it just seems feasible.

I think language what uses $ for comments won't use the same initial char for HEX numbers. It's all, simple and it won't be against nothing.

I started this post wrong I now realize. I should have phrased it "Need help configuring User Highlighter".
The pic above pretty much encompasses what the code style looks like (and shows current settings).
Can you tell me how I can make $FA00 and #$6400 different colors?
Thx! I do apologize, but I assumed hexadecimal was a solution.
I just started messing with the syntax highlighter a few days ago so its still a bit new to me.

What does #$6400 means in your language?
This isn't preprocessor. Is it number or string or label?
Just now I have this:
But it isn't ideal

Number, but to clarify it means "Hexadecimal Number(Value)". Idk if the language even uses normal numbers at all.

I am afraid I don't understand. Can you tell me difference between $nnnn and #$nnnn ?

That's really close how can I apply that?

$n.. = hexadecimal number(location within code), #$n.. = hexadecimal number(value).
One says "where to look" other says "this is a value".

In the next version. But if you clarify me the difference, I can make modification.
The rest behind the #$ is displayed with number color.

Do you mean $nnn is address and #$nnn is hexadecimal value?
