Had to do some fancy footwork to handle TiddlyWiki's wikitext, widgets, macros, transclusions.

(The red squiggly underline in the screenshot below, that's just my web browser highlighting a spelling issue.)

I wasn't happy with general performance, so I rejigged what I had to address that and to also handle a few things that were tripping up the syntax highlighting.

Things like carriage returns, multiple spaces, double-quotes, carets, etc.

If you can think of anything you would type into TiddlyWiki text that could trip up regular expression handling (for syntax coloring), let me know.

Next: I want to start adding some syntax coloring for TiddlyWiki things.  If you have preferences, let me know.

Added highlight of macro/variable references, i.e. anything looking like ```<<name>>```

Added highlight of widget end (i.e. ```/>``` or ```</$widget>```
