IIRC, syntax highlighting is fairly rudimentary ATM. That means:
whatever you set in the preferences will be used by default for all
windows. You can of course change the highlighting pattern manually for
each file.
Or you write a hook script that checks the filename and sets the
highlighting pattern appropriately if it finds a .js etc. file ;).
