I think it would be easier to use the listings package, which will 
allow you to pretty print various programming languages, including 
LaTeX. Adapting it to your needs is easy, and assigning colours to 
keywords is trivial (it is right there in the documentation). Changing 
the fonts to helvetica, or whatever is also easy.

Oh, and I've set the typeface of TeXShop to Lucida Grandde, but maybe 
that is something you shouldn't try to replicate.
