This is just a simple text editor
A little more useful than MS Notepad.
I am sure you can figure this out .....
the font and color settings are not saved with the text ...
unless you load and save in *.RTF format.
This is just to demonstrate the rich text control in a real setting.
Freak provided an example for selecting and coloring text
Tomio provided examples for the search function
Stig h. Johansen And Utopiomania.com provided a text editor with alot of good
code to copy from. Naturally, the About box and the Search-Replace box are his.
Although I improved functionality a little bit here and there
http://www.hellobasic.com/ by Edwin Knoppert and Stephen Rodriguez provided
the RTF stream code to use OLE with PB editor gadget
netmaestro donated some code too ... did I really code any of this ????

I actually started this project as a learning excersize.
It progressed rather well and usually pretty quickly.
The main reason for me to do this was for colorizing text.
My "MyPad" (a crummy html editor) looks good, but is very slow.
But rather than break it to fix it, I thought ... lets try just
a text editor and then redo "MyPad" with what I learn ....
Thanks to all who unknowingly helped with this simple editor.
Yes, I say simple, even though it really does alot. But its simple
because most of the hard stuff was already done by all you guys.
I really love PB because of all the code just floating around ....
Thanks again.

Oh, My "MyPad" is not done yet, so please don't download it or you will see
what a crummy job I did on it. That will be the next project I work on.
