Syntax Highlighting Control

Greetings,

I'm creating a program that I don't intend to profit from so I don't want to
know about any pricy controls (such as essential edit $499 ouch).

I am looking for a syntax highlighting .NET winform component. Hopefully it
will have line numbering and the ability to specify my own numbering or
place whatever text I want in where the line number otherwise would be or in
some sort of margin next to the numbers but not editable by the user. Place
breakpoint, per se, or the ability for me to do so easily. Possibly but not
required, have the ability for me to ease the intellisense implementation.

I've seen the control for SharpDevelop but I don't think it allows me to
enter in whatever I want in the margine next to or in stead of the numbers
or breakpoints. I've seen countless of these in Delphi but I can't use them
in C#.

Again, I am not going to profit from the use of this therefore I don't want
to spend *much* money (for example, Syncfusion products are simply too
expensive for me considering I won't get the money back) so I need them to
be affordable or better yet, free. No GPL. That's not "free", either,
because I can't do what I want with it (such as reserve the right to release
certain parts of the code or none at all).
Thanks,
Shawn

Well there is the CodeMax one which has a margin (with or without
linenumbering). It's in C/C++ though but IIRC there are some samples on how
to use it in VB.Net. The free open-source version can be found in the yahoo
group codemax.

Hi - I am battling to find the a resource, so maybe some one in here can help The problem is as follows: I am trying to build a mod_perl source code editor for the web - to edit Perl source code in a browser. The trick is that I want to add syntax highlighting to a HTML TEXTAREA tag. There are millions of resources for just normal text color and background colors (and images), but nothing on keyword highlighting.

I have a program where the user inputs some proprietary code in an editor. I would like to use a windows form editor control that automatically does syntax highlighting & intellisense (after I define the vocabulary). 1) How would I do that myself? Any tips and/or links? 2) Are there any open source projects that offer this functionality? 3) What commercial products do offer this (at a reasonable price)? Thanks

Years ago I looked for a text editor control that would do automatic keyword highlighting, to no avail. I found sample code to roll my own, but all of that was crap (mostly because of the way the RichTextBox base class was written, and the limitations of GDI+). I ended up coming to conclusion that I'd have to write my own in C++ to make it work right, at which point I gave up. Now it seems there are controls out there that may do the trick...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
