Ah, I wondered where the syntax highlighting came from. Is that
configurable?

I was not thinking of searching simultaneously in info and source. At any
one time you might want to search source for a particular bit of code, OR
you might want to look for all changes in rev N, OR you might want to look
for a particular author to see which bits they changed. So in that respect
it is not exactly like using a text editor to search the text file. Hmmm ...
that's 3 different search tools. But it is all extra work, and it is only a
maybe-nice-to-have-one-day sort of feature.

The words 'free' and 'Microsoft' don't normally appear together in the same
universe ;-)
I will have to go have a look - bet it's a 10GB download though.
