Lister would have to read the entire file from the beginning for correct syntax highlighting. Why? Immagine the situation where the file starts with a "start comment" sign. Then the entire file up to the next "end comment" sign would be a comment! That's why reading only a small part of the file (as lister currently does) wouldn't be sufficient.
