I noticed the board didn't have much on the Scintilla source code editor so wanted to make sure a copy of this got saved.
Scintilla is a source code editor component that includes source code highlighting, code folding, line numbering, bookmarks, built in intellisense etc. It is a great control if you want to create a source code editor or debugger UI.

Its a free component written in C and builds as SciLexer.dll. You can download the source files here:
https://www.scintilla.org/
The source attached here, scivb2.ocx, is a vb6 control that makes using it quite easy. This is an update to Stewarts great scivb.ocx control that is part of his cEditXP souce code editor.
http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb...66207&lngWId=1
I spent some time inside of it and adapted it for what I needed so I could use it as a debugger UI You can see an example of it in action here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSr1-OugQ1M
I have attached a copy of the ocx source. I have been using this for several years now and has proven stable. Any updates will be in the git repo below.
