This is an awesome project they would be extremely useful if not for the extremely poor level of documentation. The only way to use this control effectively is to decipher the more than 1.5 mBytes of source code. Al thought there are a number of 'built in' languages there is no explanation of how to use them. There is a 'hint' that you need to provide keywords. Looking at the source code there are 80 mostly empty keyword files. There is no explanation of what goes in those files or how to load one. Considering the amount of CS code involved one might be well advised to to embed the original Scintilla lexer code in their project rather than trying to decipher the code for this project. It far better documented and much less code to figure out.
