Colouring is British English; coloring is American English. 

I see the statement you quoted as meaning exactly what I mean:
highlighting means the use of different colours. (In principle, it could
mean different fonts, etc.)

" More importantly, I don't think Stata is

Well, the -h whatsnew- contains the word "highlighting" a couple of
times,
but "colour" is nowhere to be found...

Same thing to me. There are great differences in what either means
precisely between editors, but I am not making a distinction between
highlighting and colouring. More importantly, I don't think Stata is
either.

The update notice said something about "highlighting" but the manual
[D],
page 2, makes clear that this includes "colouring" (just to reduce
confusion):

" Syntax highlighting means commands and keywords, functions,
macros, strings, and comments are shown in different colors."

I am referring to syntax colouring. Are you?

Nick - This doesn't appear to be the case:


. update query
(contacting http://www.stata.com)

Stata executable
    folder:               D:\stata11\
    name of file:         Stata.exe
    currently installed:  20 Apr 2010
    latest available:     20 Apr 2010

Ado-file updates
    folder:               D:\stata11\ado\updates\
    names of files:       (various)
    currently installed:  20 Apr 2010
    latest available:     20 Apr 2010

Utilities updates
    folder:               D:\stata11\utilities
    names of files:       (various)
    currently installed:  03 Jun 2010
    latest available:     03 Jun 2010

Recommendation
    Do nothing; all files up to date.

---------------------------------------------
>>From Bill Gould:

o Truncated count-data models.  New commands -tpoisson- and -tnbreg-
      fit fit models of count-data outcomes with any form of left
      truncation, including truncation that varies observation by
      observation.
-----------------------------------------------------------


Typing "help tpoisson" or "help tnbreg" returns 

"a help file ... was not found."

Windows already has it, as of 11.0. See -help whatsnew10to11-.

Dave - Is this only for the Mac? - I don't see any mention of it on
Windows.

Airey, David C

Lots of nice additions. New covariance structures in xtmixed. Syntax
coloring in the Mac Do editor.
