Description
I can have the following.

## some text
```
words like `TODO`, `FIXME`, etc. are not highlighted. It'd be a cool feature to have.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
The issue does not name a source file, test, or entry point. Start by locating MacDown's editor syntax-highlighting implementation and inspect how Markdown comments are tokenized; done means TODO and FIXME are visibly highlighted in comments without changing ordinary text rendering.
