revised SciTE syntax lexer

[Peter-Henry Mander]

Hi Chris,

I've had a good look into the Erlang Reference Manual 4.7.3 Draft 0.7
(is there a more up to date reference?) for the keyword list, and I
realise that I've only allowed for one type of "keyword" token. Erlang
also defines a few operators, some predefined attributes and some other
reserved words too which although not keywords may be candidates for
highlighting.

I'll send you what I've got, and wait to hear what you think.

The files are tested against v1.53, but I doubt that there will be any
changes against the latest version that will prevent using v1.56

Pete.
