"Preferences" -> "LPEX Editor" -> "Appearance", and -> "Parsers" ->
"Parser Settings" are the generic ways for changing colors in LPEX and
its parsers.  To accomplish something specific like you indicate, you'd
have to extend (subclass) the respective parser and override its syntax
coloring method(s).
