Generally speaking, if you are using a lexer XXX, setting the lexer with
the name stc.STC_LEX_XXX, then the styles for that language is listed
under stc.STC_XXX_* .  You can discover all such names if you do...

    import wx.stc
    for i in dir(wx.stc):
        if i.startswith('STC_ASM_'):
            print i
