Scintilla is a free source code editing component.
Scintilla is a free source code editing component. It comes with complete source code and a license that permits use in any free project or commercial product.

As well as features found in standard text editing components, Scintilla includes features especially useful when editing and debugging source code. These include support for syntax styling, error indicators, code completion and call tips. The selection margin can contain markers like those used in debuggers to indicate breakpoints and the current line. Styling choices are more open than with many editors, allowing the use of proportional fonts, bold and italics, multiple foreground and background colours and multiple fonts,crusty demon,demon gorillaz.

The SinkWorld project investigates possible future directions for Scintilla to make it more flexible, robust, perform better and run on the .NET and Java virtual machines.

Scite is a SCIntilla based Text Editor. Originally built to demonstrate Scintilla, it has grown to be a GeneRally useful editor with facilities for building and running programs. It is best used for jobs with simple configurations - I use it for building test and demonstration programs as well as SciTE and Scintilla, themselves.

Development of Scintilla started as an effort to Improve the text editor in PythonWin. After being frustrated by problems in the Richedit control used by PythonWin, it looked like the best way forward was to write a new edit control.

new:
# Fix to positioning rectangular paste when viewing line ends.
# Dont insert new lines and indentation for line ends at end of rectangular paste.
# When not in additional selection typing mode, cutting a rectangular selection removes all of the selected text.
# Rectangular selections are copied to the clipboard in document order, not in the order of selection.
# SCI_SETCURRENTPOS and SCI_SETANCHOR work in rectangular mode.
