104 <a href="http://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaDoc.html">Scintilla</a> is a free source code editing component.
105 It comes with complete source code and a <a href="http://www.scintilla.org/License.txt">license</a> that
106 permits use in any free project or commercial product.
107 </p>
109 As well as features found in standard text editing components, Scintilla includes features
110 especially useful when editing and debugging source code.
111 These include support for syntax styling, error indicators, code completion and call tips.
112 The selection margin can contain markers like those used in debuggers to indicate
113 breakpoints and the current line. Styling choices are more open than with many editors,
114 allowing the use of proportional fonts, bold and italics, multiple foreground and background
115 colours and multiple fonts.
116 </p>
118 <a href="http://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html">SciTE</a> is a SCIntilla based Text Editor. Originally built to
119 demonstrate Scintilla, it has grown to be a generally useful editor with facilities for
120 building and running programs. It is best used for jobs with simple configurations - I use it
121 for building test and demonstration programs as well as SciTE and Scintilla, themselves.
122 </p>
124 Development of Scintilla started as an effort to improve the text editor in PythonWin. After
125 being frustrated by problems in the Richedit control used by PythonWin, it looked like the
126 best way forward was to write a new edit control. The biggest problem with Richedit and other
127 similar controls is that they treat styling changes as important persistent changes to the
128 document so they are saved into the undo stack and set the document's dirty flag. For source
129 code, styling should not be persisted as it can be mechanically recreated.
130 </p>
132 Scintilla and SciTE are currently available for Intel Win32, OS X, and Linux compatible operating
133 systems with GTK+. They have been run on Windows XP, Windows 7, OS X 10.6+, and on Ubuntu 10.10
134 with GTK+ 2.20. <a href="http://www.scintilla.org/SciTEImage.html">Here is a screenshot of
