The Text Editor component is the central editor for directly writing and maintaining the various source files for your project. Like the other components it can be used directly as a standalone application or as an integrated part of AVD itself. It will provide as many of the modern features that you would expect from a programming editor as possible within the initial development time frame.

• Context (keyword) sensitive highlighting
• Quick access browsable file lists
• Tabbed Editing for multiple open files in one window
• Help line or status bar with "hover over" quick help like ASCII/Hex/Oct/Binary values, length of quoted strings, structure and function prototype lookups (requires SDK Browser component), spell checking, etc.
• Hex editor mode for viewing and editing binary files
• Integrated load and save to FTP locations
• Much more...

Target purchase price: US $39.95
Estimated time to develop: 4 months

The above estimates are for version 1.0 of the component, sold as a stand alone application.
