RichView XML 1.1.2 by J.Banzet (update):

SyntaxRichViewEdit 1.o by I.Afanasyev (new).
The component (inherited from TRichViewEdit) with the basic syntax highlighting abilities.
Syntax highlighting is based on RichViewEdit's search and replace functions, so it cannot be used for huge documents.
But for not very large documents the performance is more than acceptable.

There are no revolutionary changes in this version, but some of minor improvements may be useful:

• inserting HTML and RTF codes in documents, some other improvements in RTF and HTML export;
• reading shading of RTF table cells (RichView shades background color by the specified value);
• (optional) saving additional layout information with document in native format (RVF);
• applying operations to multiple selected paragraphs (for example, changing indents);
• some usability tweaks.

RichViewXML is updated as well.
