Anyone have any recommendations on an editor and/or activex control that
supports the ability to customize its syntax highlighting? By syntax
highlighting I mean where the editor formats source code using different
colors and font styles.

I'm working on an application that uses a very simple syntax (markup
language) for data entry and would like to recommend an editor to my
users where I can easily configure syntax rules for their custom
language. The markup languge/syntax in question is simple, but
proprietary.

The best alternative would be for me to use an ActiveX component that
provides a syntax highlighting capability so I can integrate the editing
part of the process into the main application vs. forcing users to use
an external editor and their main application.

I know there are a bunch of editors that support custom syntax
highlighting (and a few activex controls that do the same) but I have no
experience with how easy any of these products are to work with.

If you've created your own syntax highlighting rules for an editor or
activex I would love to hear about your experience and recommendations.

Thanks!
Malcolm
