I read the Syntax Tables section of the Elisp info manual and
found how do I highlight text between <% and %>.  That the
simplest way to do that in the *scracth* buffer will be the
following:

(setq font-lock-syntactic-keywords '(("\\(<\\)%" 1 "< b")
				     ("%\\(>\\)" 1 "> b")))

I will look for the way to highlight <%foo%> and <%bar%> by
different face.  Thank you.
