I have found an answer that may or may not be helpful depending on how much time you currently have. I found out that in ©Notepad++, you can define your own unique format of a language and have it highlighted however you please, on the contrary of having to input all that you would have to do, it may be a very time consuming and tedious process. However here are the instructions:
