+ \class QSyntaxHighlighter qsyntaxhighlighter.h
+ \brief The QSyntaxHighlighter class is a base class for
+ implementing QTextEdit syntax highlighters.
+
+ \ingroup basic
+ \ingroup text
+
+ A syntax highligher automatically highlights parts of the text in
+ a QTextEdit. 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 QTextEdit, you must
+ subclass QSyntaxHighlighter and reimplement highlightParagraph().
+
+ When you create an instance of your QSyntaxHighlighter subclass,
+ pass it the QTextEdit 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.

+ \fn int QSyntaxHighlighter::highlightParagraph( const QString &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{/}.
