10.0.1246.0, C++

consider the declaration: char* string;

VAX colors string as though it is a keyword (blue), when in this case its a variable.

Our coloring algorithm is not smart enough to detect the difference between the reserved word and variable. Build for speed, the algorithm assumes "string" is always a reserved word.
