     In my collection of shareware, I found RAINBO.ZIP, about 14K, dated
1992.  I'll email it to anyone who asks; the file will be MIME-encoded. 
It works in DOS with any existing editor (EDIT, PC-Write, TED, etc.), and
lets you specify keywords and associated colors.  Registration is $29.95,
and like all shareware, you get to try it for free and pay only if you use
it.
     I have no connection with the author, and no financial interest. 
I've tried the program, and it seems to work, but I didn't continue to use
it or register because it found and colored "keywords" in quoted strings
like "This IS a test FOR using colors WITH my computer."
