But I don't want all my keywords to be highlighted in the same way. I
have different colors for Python keywords, functions and methods,
exceptions, other words like 'self', etc. and there's no way to do this
without rewriting the lexer file (which is in C++) and recompiling Scite
to build the changes into it.

I could add my own keywords to it.

I don't know if SciTE somehow supports function highlighting but the
properties file for php will perhaps give you some ideas on having
seperate groups with different highlight properties. I recall
repurposing something similar when I used to use Spyce for web apps.
