-The recommended way for modification is creating new syntax schema, inheriting from the original one, and adding new styles or overwriting inherited ones, for example. To not have conflicts with detecting of proper syntax on document open (you have two syntax schema definitions reacting on same file mask, due to inheriting) you can disable original syntax in [[options:syntax:start|Tools->Options->Syntax Settings]] (uncheck it in the list).+The recommended way for modification is creating new syntax schema, inheriting from the original one, and adding new styles or overwriting inherited ones, for example.
