Kevin,
Here you go - fully tested and genericized so you can do other words as
well. This also works if they move the insertion point somehere else in the
field and type "while". Put this in the field: (watch for line breaks)
on rawKeyUp
put "while" into tBlueWord
put length(tBlueWord)-1 into tLen
put word 4 of the selectedChunk into tCharNum
if char (tCharNum-tLen) to tCharNum of me is tBlueWord then
set the textColor of char (tCharNum-tLen) to tCharNum of me to blue
else
set the textColor of char tCharNum of me to black
end if
end rawKeyUp
