+
+
+The TQSyntaxHighlighter class is a base class for
+implementing <a href="ntqtextedit.html">TQTextEdit</a> syntax highlighters.
+<p>
+
+<p> A syntax highligher automatically highlights parts of the text in
+a TQTextEdit. Syntax highlighters are often used when the user is
+entering text in a specific format (for example, source code) and
+help the user to read the text and identify syntax errors.
+<p> To provide your own syntax highlighting for TQTextEdit, you must
+subclass TQSyntaxHighlighter and reimplement <a href="#highlightParagraph">highlightParagraph</a>().
+<p> When you create an instance of your TQSyntaxHighlighter subclass,
+pass it the TQTextEdit that you want the syntax highlighting to be
+applied to. After this your highlightParagraph() function will be
+called automatically whenever necessary. Use your
+highlightParagraph() function to apply formatting (e.g. setting
+the font and color) to the text that is passed to it.
+<p>See also <a href="basic.html">Basic Widgets</a> and <a href="text.html">Text Related Classes</a>.

+<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
+<h3 class=fn><a name="TQSyntaxHighlighter"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::TQSyntaxHighlighter ( <a href="ntqtextedit.html">TQTextEdit</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;textEdit )
+</h3>
+Constructs the TQSyntaxHighlighter and installs it on <em>textEdit</em>.
+<p> It is the caller's responsibility to delete the
+TQSyntaxHighlighter when it is no longer needed.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQSyntaxHighlighter"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::~TQSyntaxHighlighter ()<tt> [virtual]</tt>
+</h3>
+Destructor. Uninstalls this syntax highlighter from the <a href="#textEdit">textEdit</a>()
+
+<h3 class=fn>int <a name="currentParagraph"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::currentParagraph () const
+</h3>
+Returns the id of the paragraph which is highlighted, or -1 of no
+paragraph is currently highlighted.
+<p> Usually this function is called from within <a href="#highlightParagraph">highlightParagraph</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>int <a name="highlightParagraph"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::highlightParagraph ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqstring.html">TQString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;text, int&nbsp;endStateOfLastPara )<tt> [pure virtual]</tt>
+</h3>
+
+<p> This function is called when necessary by the rich text engine,
+i.e. on paragraphs which have changed.
+<p> In your reimplementation you should parse the paragraph's <em>text</em>
+and call <a href="#setFormat">setFormat</a>() as often as necessary to apply any font and
+color changes that you require. Your function must return a value
+which indicates the paragraph's end state: see below.
+<p> Some syntaxes can have constructs that span paragraphs. For
+example, a C++ syntax highlighter should be able to cope with
+<tt>/</tt><tt>*...*</tt><tt>/</tt> comments that span paragraphs. To deal
+with these cases it is necessary to know the end state of the
+previous paragraph (e.g. "in comment").
+<p> If your syntax does not have paragraph spanning constructs, simply
+ignore the <em>endStateOfLastPara</em> parameter and always return 0.
+<p> Whenever <a href="#highlightParagraph">highlightParagraph</a>() is called it is passed a value for
+<em>endStateOfLastPara</em>. For the very first paragraph this value is
+always -2. For any other paragraph the value is the value returned
+by the most recent highlightParagraph() call that applied to the
+preceding paragraph.
+<p> The value you return is up to you. We recommend only returning 0
+(to signify that this paragraph's syntax highlighting does not
+affect the following paragraph), or a positive integer (to signify
+that this paragraph has ended in the middle of a paragraph
+spanning construct).
+<p> To find out which paragraph is highlighted, call
+<a href="#currentParagraph">currentParagraph</a>().
+<p> For example, if you're writing a simple C++ syntax highlighter,
+you might designate 1 to signify "in comment". For a paragraph
+that ended in the middle of a comment you'd return 1, and for
+other paragraphs you'd return 0. In your parsing code if <em>endStateOfLastPara</em> was 1, you would highlight the text as a C++
+comment until you reached the closing <tt>*</tt><tt>/</tt>.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="rehighlight"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::rehighlight ()
+</h3> Redoes the highlighting of the whole document.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setFormat"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::setFormat ( int&nbsp;start, int&nbsp;count, const&nbsp;<a href="ntqfont.html">TQFont</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;font, const&nbsp;<a href="ntqcolor.html">TQColor</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;color )
+</h3>
+This function is applied to the syntax highlighter's current
+paragraph (the text of which is passed to the <a href="#highlightParagraph">highlightParagraph</a>()
+function).
+<p> The specified <em>font</em> and <em>color</em> are applied to the text from
+position <em>start</em> for <em>count</em> characters. (If <em>count</em> is 0,
+nothing is done.)
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setFormat-2"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::setFormat ( int&nbsp;start, int&nbsp;count, const&nbsp;<a href="ntqcolor.html">TQColor</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;color )
+</h3> This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setFormat-3"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::setFormat ( int&nbsp;start, int&nbsp;count, const&nbsp;<a href="ntqfont.html">TQFont</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;font )
+</h3> This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqtextedit.html">TQTextEdit</a>&nbsp;* <a name="textEdit"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::textEdit () const
+</h3>
+
+<p> Returns the <a href="ntqtextedit.html">TQTextEdit</a> on which this syntax highlighter is
+installed
