VbSyntaxHighlight

VbSynaxHighlight is a lightweight text editor with multicolor support.
It includes 2 main components:
1. The Editor itself
2. A small dll which handles the XML syntax configuration
It is not that reliable as the current version may contain some minor bugs.
Booth, the editor and the dll, are created with Microsofts VisualStudio and is based on .NET Framework 3.5.
The Design is a bit "old windows style"-like but I hope that is not a big problem for you.

Planned are some must have features for multicolored text editors like automatic indentation and multifont support. A tool that allows easier creation of your own xml syntax configuration files will be offered soon. For now these files have to be written by hand. Currently there are entrys in the context menu, which are grayed out because these are not implemented yet.
