  Sequencer syntax highlighting and operation functions 
 
  Created by Zaher Salman on September 16th, 2023
 
  Usage
  =====
 
  Some of these functions, although specific to the midas sequencer,
  can be used for general syntax highlighting and editing.
 
  All files created and read from subdirectories within
  experiment_directory/userfiles/sequencer. The path defined in ODB
  /Sequencer/State/Path is added to this folder.
 
  Generate highlighted script text: 
  syntax_msl(seqLines,keywordGroups)
  - seqLines      - is the text of the script (or array of lines).
  - keywordGroups - (optional) object defining the command groups for
  highlighting. If not provided, a msl default will 
  be used.
 
  Highlight the current line: 
  hlLine(lineNum,color,editor,msgs)
  - lineNums- the line number to be highlighted (or an array of numbers)
  - color   - (optional) background color
  - editor  - (optional) if provided, scroll to highlighted line in editor
  - msgs    - (optional) if provided, use as title/s for the highlighted line/s
 
  todo:
  - syntax validate ODBSET, ODBGET etc. have a valid ODB parameter
