Could someone point me in the write direction for creating an editor in java that enables syntax highlighting. Just links to other topics here at javaranch, links to web sites that explain this, or some key API's I should be looking at will suffice.
Thank you

I believe that the code at www.jedit.org is open source, so you can see how they did it.

Thanks Cindy. But when I downloaded the source code, and looked around, I couldn't find what I was looking for.
I think that I don't have enough JAVA training and/or experience to really look at a project that large, and find the puzzle peices I need.

Try reading about the flyweight design pattern in "Design Patterns" by Gamma, Helm,Johnson and Vlissides. They use a word processor as a description of how this pattern might be used.
