I have created a rather elaborate Java pretty printer for displaying
Java source in colour.

It bolds places where packages, classes, constructors, constants,
variables and methods are defined.

It uses distinctive, but reasonably subtle colour coding for each
syntactic element.

It uses variable size {} () [] for easier eyeball matching.

It bolds returns.

It is just as fast as JTextField.

Have a peek at how it is coming along at
http://mindprod.com/projjavapresenter.html.

Look at the bottom of the page for the new Applet version. The top
version shows how it is done with HTML.

Eventually I will give you the choice of using an Applet or including
colourised HTML.
