2 years ago I don't think TextmateSharp is the piece you should use for that. I'd use AvaloniaEdit's transformers for that.
Basically you need to write a line transformer that just change the chunk style when you find a match in your line.
You can find a custom transformer here: https://github.com/AvaloniaUI/AvaloniaEdit/blob/master/src/AvaloniaEdit.TextMate/GenericLineTransformer.cs
I'm using AvaloniaEdit and am using it as a replacement for a WPF RichTextBox I was using in a custom control.
Look at the AE docs it says I need to implement IRegistryOptions but I can't find any examples of what any of the requirements are for doing so. This is all pretty complex stuff and I can't find anything to give me a nudge in the right direction.
I found a message saying to look at the implementation for AvaloniaEdit but the link is now a 404 and looking over all the branches it seems to have vanished.
My requirements are really simple.
I just have a handful of key words to be green and a handful of keywords to be Red but I just cannot figure out what to do with the interface. It all seems geared up for a much more complex use case and I'm left struggling a bit to be honest.
Are there any docs I'm missing or examples?
