BScintillaEdit drop-in replacement
A small, portable, single-file BScintillaEdit(QScrollArea) widget that's a
drop-in replacement for the old, now-archived bscintillaedit PyPI
package's widget of the same name (see
Project mission). Copy bscintillaedit.py straight into
your own project — same base class, properties, signals, and slots
(lineEndVisible, lineNumbersVisible, lineWrapped, readOnly, text,
their *Changed signals and setter slots, and clear()), same defaults (LF
line endings, hidden symbol margin, styled line-number margin, "↩"
end-of-line glyph) as the old widget — only the import line changes.
blockEditEnabled is new, additive functionality not in the old widget.
The demo main.py shows BScintillaEdit used as a QMainWindow's central
widget, with toolbar toggles for each property and menus for picking the
end-of-line representation glyph and colour. See
examples/bscintillaedit/README.md
for the full API reference, porting steps, and efficient editor-sync
patterns.
