PowerHouse Keywords

I haven't forgotten about this but it takes some time since I've got to
slip it in amongst other things.

I've been going through the syntax tables, extracting keywords (and
running into some abbreviation anomalies at the same time).

I've done QUIZ so far, as a test. I don't know whether the text editors
are context sensitive. The reason I mention it is because some of the
QUIZ statements are two words, such as FINAL FOOTING. If it's worth
separating statement names from options and other keywords, context
sensitivity is needed.

So far I have files for: statements, other keywords (and there are some
duplicates), date formats, functions, item type keywords, and sql
keywords (used in DECLARE CURSOR).

Before I continue, I'd like to know if this is the right track. Is it
too distinct? If anyone would like to take a look, let me know in a
private message and I'll e-mail them. 

I do not expect that we will publish these files in print, but I can
certainly make them available on our web site. Keeping them up to date
will be an ongoing issue.
