Comment #2 by Tony MOREHEN:

But if you are using the text editor component in a generic text editor and just want it to highlight code, this behaviour is unexpected and unwanted.  This came up when I was trying to edit Gambas form files when I had problems opening older projects.  The change caused the edited file to give a bad form error.

This means that you cannot use the text editor component with Gambas highlighting in a generic text editor.  Do any of the other highlight options change the text?  If so, I'll have to remove highlighting from my editor.

At the very least, you should add a warning to the doc's that highlighting can change the text of your file.
