A wrapper around a RichEdit control to provide code editing features.

Using

Create an instance of the RichCode class, passing it a Settings array whose members are as listed below. As a second, optional parameter you can pass control options to be used in the Gui, Add command.

See Examples/Demo.ahk for more advanced usage.

	, "Highlighter": Func("HighlightAHK")
	
	; The colors to be used by the highlighter function.
	; This is currently used only by the highlighter, not at all by the
