Summary: Adobe's OSX port and bug fixes to 1.74 (part 2 of 4)

Initial Comment:
This is part 2 of 4.

Adobe would like to contribute its Scintilla improvements to the Scintilla
community.

In 2006 Adobe decided to use Scintilla for the new version of the
ExtendScript Toolkit that was eventually shipped with Creative Suite 3
(CS3). The ExtendScript Toolkit (ESTK) is a development and debugging tool
for JavaScript scripts included with Adobe CS3 Suites and applications such
as Bridge, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and After Effects. ESTK 2.0 is
a new and enhanced version that allows you to create, edit and debug
ExtendScript (Adobe's JavaScript language) all with an updated user
interface, a new text engine, and the ability to debug more than one script
at a time. That new text engine is Scintilla!

The ExtendScript Toolkit is freely available on Adobe's website at:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/bridge

In order to ship ESTK 2.0 with Scintilla we had to make some changes to the
Scintilla code. We started with version 1.68 and upgraded later to version
1.71, which was the version we ended up shipping with CS3. We recently
updated the Scintilla code base to Scintilla 1.74 and prepared our code so
it could be easily merged with the Scintilla code base. All changes made by
Adobe are ifdef'ed in ADOBE – in other words if you didn't define ADOBE
in your projects you would get Scintilla 1.74.

Here is a 'high-level' list of improvements (bug fixes and new features) we
have added to Scintilla:

Win & OSX:
- Support for custom margins
- Bug fixes

OSX:
- Input Method Engine (IME) support
- Unicode support
- Drag and drop
- Context menu notification
- XCode project files.
- Bug fixes

Most of the changes we have made were in the area of the Mac OSX port.
For more details please see "List of changes Adobe has made to Scintilla
1.74" in README-Adobe.txt.
