That's very interesting! I was already thinking about javascript highlighting.
It could be even simpler as the lilypond web pages are read only. A
single .js file would need to be included and it would automagically
highlight the examples in the Lilypond manual. Which will make it more
readable, I think. Esp. the difference between official commands and user
commands.
