Hi
while I was reading the code of a famous application I observe that there is something weird, a name of a variable has the same color of the keywords!
So I try to DIM some other keywords used as complementary to another keyword, for example USING that has its role with PRINT but not alone, or BINARY or OUTPUT or RANDOM or OFF . In each of these my attempt to use a keyword as name of variable the IDE warns me about name already in use and it highligthes the keyword with the color set for keywords.
So I have searched into wiki for this name colored as keyword but I find nothing!
And for this reason I post this code here
here a screenshot

the orange window is VScode, the green window is QB64pe 4.1 (look at line 100) and the black window is Qb64pe 4.0...
I think that it is a glitch of parser of the IDE in the highlighting task.

Code: (Select All)
Dim Shared Stretch As Long, HasBorder As Long
the result is the same both in QB64pe 4.0 both in 4.1 while it disappears in VSCode with GrymmJack extension for QB64pe.here a screenshot
