Don't wanna spoil John's day, of course, but you can easily have more
then one instance of DefaultHighlighter associated with the document
enclosed in any JTextComponent. This class implements the Highlighter
(interface) and you can feed it the offset/length parameters for your
highlighted fragments.
There's also DefaultHighlighter.DefaultHighlightPainter (inner class)
that does the painting - you can set color parameters etc there.
Hope this helps,
Sandor
