You can edit that file without any button in the settings dialog. It's
stored in the installation bin folder of TSVN. But you should be very
careful when editing that file: if you enter there an invalid
expression, the regex engine throws an exception and then the whole
parsing won't happen at all (TSVN won't crash, but it also won't parse
your files for keywords to include in the autocompletion).
Also, we would like to include any changes people do in that file in
the TSVN releases. So if someone wants to improve the parsing, they
should ask on the mailing list first on how to do that, then we can
tell them that and ask to give their changes back to the project.

As of revision 3502, the BASE files are parsed too.
But know this: to avoid having the commit dialog wait too long, the
parsing stops after 5 seconds, no matter if all listed files have been
parsed yet or not.
