PureBasic Forums - English

Hi Guys,

It's been many years since I've played with Purebasic programming, and it's time to pick it up again.

I'm thinking I'd like to start with a simple text editing program.

Can anyone point me to some sample code that I can look at that would help me develop a text editor?

I don't want to use the editor gadget of Purebasic. I want to develop it like it might have been done in MS-Basic or Quickbasic, but using the Purebasic syntax.

Can anyone help? Thanks,

Mike...

Have you thought of looking at PureBasic's ScintillaGadget and the syntax for Scintilla? I think it would have a lot of what you may be looking for.

The Scintilla gadget, which I think I'm right in saying is used for the PB IDE, is very good. PB has a lib for it and the Scintilla documentation (on their website) is excellent.
