Have you ever wanted to embed syntax highlighted code in your app? In the above demo, I wanted to include the code that created the demo in order to help show how to “do-it-yourself”. Rather than switch from the demo to an IDE, I thought it was smoother and more focused to switch views within the actual application. To get the syntax highlighted code, I used the open source jEdit Syntax Package. This package provides a JEditTextArea widget which handles all the details.
