Python bindings for the QScintilla programmers editor widget

Project description

What is QScintilla?

QScintilla is a port to Qt of the Scintilla programmers editor widget. It supports the traditional low-level Scintilla API and implements a high-level API covering such things as auto-completion, code folding and lexer configuration.

These Python bindings implement a single extension module that sits on top of PyQt5 and wraps both the low-level and high-level APIs.
