If I understand correctly, you want to build an editor with a Python

maybe AppleScript/TextEdit is a way to go; maybe someone else will have
tips

Thank you for your reply. I went through the yellowbrain.com site on the
STC and learnt a lot.
And I also found peppy, the python-based XEMacs-like editor based on the
STC. So that may be the best of both worlds: an editor with functionality,
and the STC hooks that would allow me to implement what I wanted. I would
like to use the lexer that you mentioned, but I have a feeling it might be
easier for my purpose to use the stc_onChange event, because the lexer
appears to be particularly designed for triggering text coloring rather
than for returning tokens that can trigger actions (am I wrong ?).
I would still also like to find an AppleScript+TextEdit solution if one
seems plausible.
Thanks again for the very prompt and useful reply !!
