Generic is just a small demo program. It uses a native multi-line edit
control, which is limited to 64K of data. Since it's native, it's not
possible to add things like text color coding.

I *had* started an editor written in Win32Lib some months ago, but I seem to
have lost the code. Perhaps Robert or someone has a backup - I doubt it,
since I never officially released it.

I'm slowly building emulated controls for Llama. One of these controls will
obviously need to be a multi-line text editor. It should be possible to
build an editor from that. Right now, the emulated control classes are
highly experimental, and the code changes on a regular basis. At the moment,
I'm looking at basing them on the Qt classes.

Ooops. You've got an old copy of the code. The 18a demo was an attempt to
rewrite the code using the Canvas class, but I got distracted and never
finished it. The file should never have made it into the distribution.

The Canvas class is now called a Pixmap.

Thanks!
