Well, writing a lexer is a little bit more complex than your original
example suggested.

As I understand it the order of the parts following "set" is arbitrary,
i. e.
set workspace = 6148 header on.
is equivalent to
set header on workspace = 6148.
correct?
I'm not sure if a single regex can capture this.
But looking at the pygments docs I think you need something along the
lines of (adapt the token names to your need):
class ExampleLexer(RegexLexer):
tokens = {
'root': [
(r'\s+', Text),
(r'set', Keyword),
(r'workspace|header', Name),
(r'\S+', Text),
]
}
Does this help?
Bye, Andreas
