    \class TQSyntaxHighlighter ntqsyntaxhighlighter.h
    \brief The TQSyntaxHighlighter class is a base class for
    implementing TQTextEdit syntax highlighters.

    \ingroup basic
    \ingroup text

    A syntax highligher automatically highlights parts of the text in
    a TQTextEdit. Syntax highlighters are often used when the user is
    entering text in a specific format (for example, source code) and
    help the user to read the text and identify syntax errors.

    To provide your own syntax highlighting for TQTextEdit, you must
    subclass TQSyntaxHighlighter and reimplement highlightParagraph().

    When you create an instance of your TQSyntaxHighlighter subclass,
    pass it the TQTextEdit that you want the syntax highlighting to be
    applied to. After this your highlightParagraph() function will be
    called automatically whenever necessary. Use your
    highlightParagraph() function to apply formatting (e.g. setting
    the font and color) to the text that is passed to it.
*/

/*!
    Constructs the TQSyntaxHighlighter and installs it on \a textEdit.

    It is the caller's responsibility to delete the
    TQSyntaxHighlighter when it is no longer needed.
*/

TQSyntaxHighlighter::TQSyntaxHighlighter( TQTextEdit *textEdit )
    : para( 0 ), edit( textEdit ), d( new TQSyntaxHighlighterPrivate )
{
    textEdit->document()->setPreProcessor( new TQSyntaxHighlighterInternal( this ) );
    textEdit->document()->invalidate();
    TQTimer::singleShot( 0, textEdit->viewport(), TQ_SLOT( update() ) );
}

    Destructor. Uninstalls this syntax highlighter from the textEdit()

TQSyntaxHighlighter::~TQSyntaxHighlighter()
{

    textEdit()->document()->setPreProcessor( 0 );
}

/*!
    \fn int TQSyntaxHighlighter::highlightParagraph( const TQString &text, int endStateOfLastPara )

    This function is called when necessary by the rich text engine,
    i.e. on paragraphs which have changed.

    In your reimplementation you should parse the paragraph's \a text
    and call setFormat() as often as necessary to apply any font and
    color changes that you require. Your function must return a value
    which indicates the paragraph's end state: see below.

    Some syntaxes can have constructs that span paragraphs. For
    example, a C++ syntax highlighter should be able to cope with
    \c{/}\c{*...*}\c{/} comments that span paragraphs. To deal
    with these cases it is necessary to know the end state of the
    previous paragraph (e.g. "in comment").

    If your syntax does not have paragraph spanning constructs, simply
    ignore the \a endStateOfLastPara parameter and always return 0.

    Whenever highlightParagraph() is called it is passed a value for
    \a endStateOfLastPara. For the very first paragraph this value is
    always -2. For any other paragraph the value is the value returned
    by the most recent highlightParagraph() call that applied to the
    preceding paragraph.

    The value you return is up to you. We recommend only returning 0
    (to signify that this paragraph's syntax highlighting does not
    affect the following paragraph), or a positive integer (to signify
    that this paragraph has ended in the middle of a paragraph
    spanning construct).

    To find out which paragraph is highlighted, call
    currentParagraph().

    For example, if you're writing a simple C++ syntax highlighter,
    you might designate 1 to signify "in comment". For a paragraph
    that ended in the middle of a comment you'd return 1, and for
    other paragraphs you'd return 0. In your parsing code if \a
    endStateOfLastPara was 1, you would highlight the text as a C++
    comment until you reached the closing \c{*}\c{/}.

    This function is applied to the syntax highlighter's current

    nothing is done.)
