I have recently refactored the code so that the parser and the

Great! This simplifies my task a lot. Interface and
implementation seem to be straightforward. Of course, I'll need
to understand overall design first, but now I have a good
starting point.
Do I understand correctly that syntax coloring is implemented via
using GetTip / GetTipResult pair of functions, which serialize
tokens using ast.node.Node.toD(CodeWriter)? If yes, is format
defined by some standard or documented? If no, what mechanism is
used to highlight syntax?
