It's really wonderful, the text can be bold, can be italic,... but how did they make this? Anybody knows? It seems that they can write code in the WM_PAINT handler of the editor... strange!

Well, if you're keeping it a secret 'cause you're afraid somebody will make a competing product... don't bother worrying about that. What WT should be worried about is Microsoft and their VS 2005, which I have used in Beta, and I have to say, I think they're on to you.

If VS 2005 is even *half* as usable as VC6 was, I'll eat my hat.

Larry be careful about what you promise, after all VC.net is about half as usable as VC 6.
