Inconsistent highlighting of DataTypes about atom-language-julia HOT 2 CLOSED

If the second option is doable without false positives, I think people might like it.

Otherwise I agree that 4 is the cleanest.

To try to get 2, we might just impose the official naming conventions from the contributing guide and say something like (A-Z\w+) is a type name (the initial A-Z enforces the upper-camel-case guideline), but I suspect that some users wouldn't like that. Also, it would be hard to disambiguate module and type names if we tried that.

I think this is closed by #22.

I think you're right about disambiguating module and type names, and possibly constants (in the case of single letters or acronyms). Also, type highlighting gets really loud if all the types being passed around as values are highlighted, and highlighting the type in x = Union{Int, UInt} but not x = Int seems a little strange, for example.
