okay , simmering down.  I've got it working again now with the new Adapt

I put a warning on the wiki..
WARNING!!

TextEditor is primarily the gambas IDE text editor and is subject to
changes at any time without warning.
Particularly when it comes to Highlighting (gb.highlight)

I have had to re-code my own program that uses TextEditor 3 times due to
fundamental changes in how highlighting works.
