RSyntaxTextArea

Njord is making heavy use of RSyntaxTextArea http://fifesoft.com/rsyntaxtextarea/

RSTA (RSyntaxTextArea) is specifically a swing component for formatting code. you can do color highlighting stuff with the jeditorpane but I would have to do it with things like appendToPane("hi", color.RED,paneToAppendTo); and then I'd have to back out those highlights before saving.

RSTA on the other hand supports highlighting by language definition and it was reasonably easy to extend the TCL highlighting to include the iRules specific objects.

See the examples's here http://fifesoft.com/rsyntaxtextarea/examples/index.php and the JavaDocs here http://javadoc.fifesoft.com/rsyntaxtextarea As well as the forums here http://fifesoft.com/forum/ I have several threads going in the forums to address issues I'm having with using this library.
