What I did for the emacs ado-mode was go through the books and pull out
the commands one by one. Not really efficient, but doable.
If anyone wants to see the list I used for checking the highlighting,
which includes whatever subcommands seemed useful, some constructions (to
check indentation), some obsolete commands, and smcl commands, it can be
gotten from
ftp://brising:@erdos.math.louisville.edu/public_ftp/ado-mode/
The two files which have lists of commands are:
syntax_checker.ado
syntax_checker.dlg
