Tom Gersic:

 I have a text editor that uses wxStyledTextCtrl as a Scintilla wrapper. I'd
like to know how one would go about hiding certain characters from view.

  Create a style with the visible facet off and then use that style
for these characters. Non-visible text has not been thoroughly thought
through and may not behave as you expect. For example, there will be
caret positions on each side of the invisible character. You can
experiment in SciTE using the deliberately undocumented "notvisible"
style facet. The "notchangeable" facet may also be of interest.

  Trying to build something like a word processor out of this is
going to be very frustrating and you should use a different base
component.

  Neil
