// // "$Id$" // // How to use Fl_Text_Editor with dynamic colors. -erco 08/29/2018 // Originally posted on fltk.general. // // Shows how to use the add_modify_callback() to dynamically apply colors // to text while the user types. For demonstration purposes, we trivially // color the digits 0-4 in green, 5-9 in red, and all else in black. // // The text buffer and style buffer are two parallel character arrays; // chars in the *text* buffer are the text in the editor, and // chars in the *style* buffer represent coloring + font information // for the corresponding character in the text buffer. // // In this example, a style buffer table sets up these style buffer // characters: 'A' to be black text, 'B' to be green, and 'C' for red. // The style buffer uses the same font + font sizes, so the font sizes // remain the same when colors are changed. // // Copyright 2018 Greg Ercolano. // Copyright 1998-2018 by Bill Spitzak and others. // // This library is free software.
