mkiv (four) : files that expect mkiv (or lmtx)
mkvi (six) : mkiv (or lmtx) files that pass a filter
mkxl (fourty) : files that expect lmtx
mklx (sixty) : lmtx files that pass a filter
(there are some more, like template files and so)
I suppose that latex syntax highlighting filters support tex and sty and
maybe suffixes i'm noti aware of. So a context specific highlighter
could support mkiv, mkvi, mkxk and mkvi. At least that's what I do here.
