Now that Qt is basically no longer OpenSource given there is no LTS and the "community" is barred from choosing direction or maintaining its own LTS, a port of Scintilla was needed. Ls-Cs is a port of CopperSpice which is a port of the last real OpenSource version of Qt, version 4.8. LsCsScintilla is a port of Scintilla to work with Ls-Cs.

All Qt+Scintilla based editors should be able to port to Ls-Cs+LsCsScintilla rather painlessly.

RedDiamond uses Ls-Cs+LsCsScintilla

Previous versions of this project that worked with CopperSpice will be dropped going forward. Ls-Cs is the only cross platform library the package will support.

Features

  • Enhancements not found in Scintilla
  • Should be able to easily merge in future relevant Scintilla changes
  • Easily build all of the example editors with one shell script
  • Easily build and install the library with a single shell script
