An UITextView with Syntax Highlighting and Pan-Gesture Navigation / Selection
The cursor can be navigated by panning left or right over the text view. To create a selection, or expand an existing one, a pan-to-zoom gesture can be used.
Syntax highlighting is controlled by the properties highlightDefinition and highlightTheme.
highlightDefinition is a mapping of hightlight identifiers to highlight regular expressions. For example:
@{@"number": @"[0-9]+",
@"word": @"[a-zA-Z]+"}
highlightTheme is a mapping of the same highlight identifiers to UIColors. For example:
@{@"number": [UIColor redColor],
@"word: [UIColor greenColor]}
By default, a nice highlighting theme is included and the highlight definition is read from a file in the bundle called Syntax.plist.
