123 <a href="http://scintilla.sourceforge.net/ScintillaDoc.html">Scintilla</a> is a free source code editing component.
\r
124 It comes with complete source code and a <a href="http://scintilla.sourceforge.net/License.txt">license</a> that
\r
125 permits use in any free project or commercial product.
\r
128 As well as features found in standard text editing components, Scintilla includes features
\r
129 especially useful when editing and debugging source code.
\r
130 These include support for syntax styling, error indicators, code completion and call tips.
\r
131 The selection margin can contain markers like those used in debuggers to indicate
\r
132 breakpoints and the current line. Styling choices are more open than with many editors,
\r
133 allowing the use of proportional fonts, bold and italics, multiple foreground and background
\r
134 colours and multiple fonts.
\r
137 The <a href="http://scintilla.sourceforge.net/SinkWorld.html">SinkWorld project</a>
\r
138 investigates possible future directions for Scintilla to make it more flexible, robust, perform
\r
139 better and run on the .NET and Java virtual machines.
\r
142 <a href="http://scintilla.sourceforge.net/SciTE.html">SciTE</a> is a SCIntilla based Text Editor. Originally built to
\r
143 demonstrate Scintilla, it has grown to be a generally useful editor with facilities for
\r
144 building and running programs. It is best used for jobs with simple configurations - I use it
\r
145 for building test and demonstration programs as well as SciTE and Scintilla, themselves.
\r
148 Development of Scintilla started as an effort to improve the text editor in PythonWin. After
\r
149 being frustrated by problems in the Richedit control used by PythonWin, it looked like the
\r
150 best way forward was to write a new edit control. The biggest problem with Richedit and other
\r
151 similar controls is that they treat styling changes as important persistent changes to the
\r
152 document so they are saved into the undo stack and set the document's dirty flag. For source
\r
153 code, styling should not be persisted as it can be mechanically recreated.
\r
156 Scintilla and SciTE are currently available for Intel Win32 and Linux compatible operating
\r
157 systems with GTK+. They have been run on Windows 95, NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and on Fedora 8
\r
158 with GTK+ 2.12. <a href="http://scintilla.sourceforge.net/SciTEImage.html">Here is a screenshot of
