Umm, write your own using ncurses or something?  The commandline
doesn't have fancy formatting.  That is usually found with programming
editors such as gvim (www.vim.org).  With gvim I get all sorts of nice
syntax highlighting, but I edit a file which must be run by the
interpreter, rather than an interactive session.
