The TextEditor does nothing.

It's the 'gb.eval.highlight' component that has support for highlighting 
that both highlights and rewrites the highlighted text.

The Gambas highlighting is done in the 'gb.eval' component.

The transformation of "?" into "PRINT" is done in 'eval_read.c' at line 
400 (in 'master').

It's done after the parser has done its job, so it's just a matter of 
replacing the token for question mark by the token of PRINT, only if we 
want to rewrite the code ('EVAL->analyze' is 'TRUE' then).
