+ Scintilla is a free source code editing component. 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.
+ It comes with complete source code and may be used in any free project or commercial + product. +

+

+ 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. The biggest problem with Richedit and other + similar controls is that they treat styling changes as important persistent changes to the + document so they are saved into the undo stack and set the document's dirty flag. For source + code, styling should not be persisted as it can be mechanically recreated. +

+

+ Scintilla and SciTE are currently available for Intel Win32 and Linux compatible operating + systems with GTK+. They have been run on Windows 95, NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and on Red Hat + Linux 4.2, 6.1 and Solaris with GTK+ 1.2.0. Here is a screenshot of + SciTE.
