Hi everyone,
I am releasing the first version of my syntax highlighting library
written in actionscript 3. I use this library in the chatrooms in my
SearchCoders/Dashboard application to parse as3 code in the chatrooms.
Here's an example:
http://www.machine501.com/2007/05/29/syntax-highlight-as3/
Here are some of the features:
* support for multiple languages. comes with an as3 language grammar
but you can add your own. follows the language grammar format used by
textmate.
* asynchronous, so it won't tie up your ui while it parses a big document
* styling TextFields: quick-and-dirty styler for as3.
* selectors: tags segments of the document with the names of the
language grammar rule that matched it so that you can use it for things
like providing context sensitive help, etc.
* bsd license.
