That's quite impressive, really! Do you already have plans which of our TODOs you'll implement next week? :) some concrete feedback (all of this is pretty much on the surface, I didn't do deeper tests for now): - when you type something in the SQL view, the cursor vanishes as soon it is "colored". That is, during typing, the text is still red, and a second later, when it is properly colored, the cursor vanishes from the view. Though it re-appears when you continue typing, this is irritating. - The bracket highlighting is a cool additional feature. It would win, IMO, if you would not only highlight the matching bracket, but also the one which you just entered. Might be a matter of taste, but this is how I know it from other editors. - The default colors (e.g. light green on white for strings) are ... difficult :) - Is it also possible to customize aspects of a font other than color? That is, would it be possible with the implementation to have bold keywords? Other than that - I'm looking forward to see this feature in the final product, thanks again for embarking upon this!
