I write couple of "assert(...)" in code, to make sure that pre- and post-conditions should be satisfied. We can tell the Delphi compiler, whether to compile with assertions in a debug version and without assertions in a release version.

I would like to know, if it is possible, to highlight "assert" like other Pascal keywords?
