Ah, good point, the editor probably doesn't know how to syntax highlight
them. OTOH, we use RSyntaxTextArea, which I think supports highlighting
out of the box, so perhaps it knows how to do assembly as well. Haven't
checked, though.

This is a bit off-topic for this thread, but I'm currently working on
some actual cleanup of exactly that part of the code, reduce complexity
of the code and coupling of the classes. I'll probably submit a pull
request for these changes later this week, I'll drop a note to the other
thread once I do.
