Add color coding for DO's/END's in LPEX and other editors

Add the ability in the different editors to have DO's/END's color coded. First level DO/END would be one color, say red, second level DO/END would be another color, say white, etc. This would make it easier to be sure your DO's are properly terminated with an END.

    Personally i don't think color coding is the best solution here.
    "Find matching ..." and appropriate code-folding would be helpeful in a lot of situations and might help the original poster too. just my 0.02€
