VC6 - There is a small problem with .IDL files and coloring their contents:
Only keywords and comments are colored. Datatypes, functions etc. are just black.
But - tooltips are colored properly. Would it be asking too much to have .idl files completely syntax colored? VAX seems to know 'it' anyway.

Also, matching brackets highlightning does not work in .idl files.

Another interesting observation is that the tooltip for a function in a .idl file shows the comment from the generated .h file.

Context and definition bar show both properly location and definition, correctly colored.

HCB seems to get a bit confused about some members. Probably because of the automatic double interface definition (C/C++) in the .h file.
