Frankly, Notepad++'s format recognition in general is about 80-90%. I was just
working on a Rexx program and noticed it was off. Usually selecting the
language type again -- just clicking Language Rexx or HLASM again -- reminds
Notepad++ of what it is supposed to be doing.

Subject: Re: Notepad++ language formatting
All,
based on the work by Charles Mills I created an updated/extended version
including all current instructions according PoP, more macros,
more register names, and more file types.
It is not perfect, but it does a reasonable job.
So I submitted it to the Notepad++ community.
They've taken it up in their library/repository at
https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/userDefinedLanguages
If you want to give it a try, you can import
the definitions from that repository.
If there is sufficient 'demand' I'll consider working
with the Notepad++ community to improve their
formatting options so we get properly highlighted
assembler source.
Personally I find most annoying that I could not
define macro labels as a separate category.
Notepad++ is unable to distinguish between the
.labels and the .* comments.
Also. recognition of comments is inconsistent.
