Current Parser Version: 3.5
Requires: HomeSite 4.5 RC 3 or greater

 About the Parser
=======================================================================
ASP-VBScript is a color coding parser for the editor component used
in Allaire HomeSite 4.5.  ASP-VBScript 3.5 is the script that will be
included with the shipped version of HomeSite 4.5.  If you are running
HomeSite 4.5 RC3, simply replace the existing ASP-VBScript.scc file
with the new one.

What's so great about the new ASP-VBScript:
-Support for HTML, ASP (VBScript), JavaScript, and Style Sheets 
-Syntax highlighting for all four languages 
-Total customizabilty of all aspects of the color coding 
-ASP can be embedded anywhere without breaking the rest of the coloring 

 Installation Instructions
=======================================================================
1. Extract the file ASP-VBScript.scc from ASP-VBScript.zip.
2. Replace the file 'ASP-VBScript.scc' in your HomeSite 4.5's Parsers
   subdirectory with the new file.  NOTE:  By default, the Parsers
   subdirectory can be found at:
   C:\Program Files\Allaire\HomeSite 4.5\Parsers\
3. Start HomeSite normally and use the Color Coding section of
   HomeSite's Options dialog to customize the 'ASP-VBScript' scheme to
   suit your needs.
4. For best results, make ASP-VBScript your default color scheme.

 The Future of ASP-VBScript
=======================================================================
I will be working with Allaire to continue to develop new parsers and
improve existing ones.  I would like to see all parsers use similar
color coding while providing emphasis on a specific language or
feature set.  I am always looking for suggestions and comments.  Feel
free to e-mail me at brjones3@vt.edu.

 Revision History
=======================================================================

Version 1.0 (?/?/1999) - An experiment in patience.  The sparse
	documentation on writing parsers made creating a simple HTML only
	script extremely difficult.

Version 2.0 (?/?/1999) - After speaking with David Brock, the author
	of the TSyntaxMemo component used for HomeSite's editor, I learned
	a few new tricks for this version.  I did some early dabbling with
	parsing ASP as well as HTML.

Version 3.0 (09/09/99) - A complete rewrite.  Now named HTML+, the
	parser used many new techniques that allowed for parsing of HTML,
	ASP (with VBScript), JavaScript, and StyleSheets.  Due to
	limitations in HomeSite 4.0.1, only 24 styles were customizable.

Version 3.5 (11/07/99) - With the release of HomeSite 4.5 RC3, I
	was able to activate all 48 Editable Styles for HTML+ 3.5.  This
	version was purchased by Allaire for inclusion in HomeSite 4.5 and
	was renamed to ASP-VBScript so that it could replace the existing
	ASP-VBScript parser.
	
	Small Changes:
	11/07/99 - Added support for quoted strings & special characters
	11/12/99 - Added styles:
				JavaScript Default - JavaScript Whitespace
				ASP Default	- ASP Whitespace
				CSS Default - CSS Whitespace
				CSS Punctuation - CSS Punctuation P { } : ;
	11/17/99 - Added support for default background color
