As part of the long and drawn out process of migrating from Delphi I'm trying to
eliminate any reliance on proprietary controls such as RichEdit.
For a number of jobs I'd like something which is basically a simple terminal
emulator screen- new data is appended and old stuff scrolls off the top - but
with the option of being able to set background/foreground colours on a
per-character basis.
In the past I've done this by subclassing a StringGrid and working directly onto
the canvas, but does anybody have any better ideas?
