Ok, we'll work on that.

Apart the javadoc and some articles found on the net, I am not aware  
of any place that contains a comprehensive documentation.
Maybe on books, but I have 2 books on Eclipse plugins and none of them  
provide an in depth presentation of this part of the Eclipse framework.

What do you need exactly? I might try to find some documentation.
Frankly the document I gave you is the *best* and most comprehensive  
document that I've ever found about the JFace text framework.

Anyway, the way I do is the following:
1) Lookup in books
2) Some googling + experiment
3) Ecipse wiki (very messy)
4) Asking question on the eclipse newgroups (http://www.eclipse.org/newsgroups/ 
)

Venkatesh has sent an email last thursday. He has already done a lot  
and maybe he could integrate its work with yours once you commit in  
the sandbox.

I think that investigating the integration of Vincent's parser and  
evaluating the complexity is a good thing to do.
For the next step you might try to look at Vincent's parser see how  
difficult is to integrate it in the Eclipse text frameworks for  
making, for example, the same kind of processing you have already done  
from scratch.

This will give us an idea of what is needed and how complex it is.  
I'll look at this as well.

Please commit your work as soon as possible so I that I can start  
reviewing it and helping you in a more effective way.

Cheers,
Fabio
