My intention was: cmavo in yellow, cmene in magenta, gismu in green,
errors that this poor tool can recognize in red. Cyan is left for lujvo,
fuhivla and possible invalid words that cannot (yet ;-) be recognized as
such. I believe morphology (not syntax!) of lojban is Level 3 grammar
and therefore can be in theory recognized by regexps, but there will be
very long regexps anyway. Current solution seems to be reasonable angry
for errors. I'm thinking how to make this job better. If you send me an
example of text where to many invalid stuff is "all cyan" - it will be
a good statring point for me.
