Is there HTML documentation for wxStyledTextCtrl similar to the
documentation for the other wxWindows classes? If not, I'll write some
for your review and post it on my web site so you can see what it looks
like. I'll use stc.h as the starting point.
Also, would there be any objection or obstacle to making
wxStyledTextCtrl upward compatible with wxTextCtrl? That would make
converting from wxTextCtrl much easier, at least in my app.
Thanks.

That would be great!
On the other hand, if you can grok Tex then doing it in Tex would be better
as then it could be incorporated into the rest of the wx docs, and the
tex2rtf utility (in the wxWindows source tree) can be used to convert it to
HTML and other formats.
If interested I can send you a skeleton .tex file that is auto generated
from the stc.h with all the method definitions and such already there, using
the common macros used by the rest of the wx docs.

Since most of wxSTC is code generated from Scintilla.iface I think it makes
more sense to keep it close to the model defined there. Perhaps you could
do a compatibility layer as a derived class?

Sure. Send it along. I'll do the docs both ways. I think having HTML
docs, ideally incorporated in the wxWindows .html index, would be
useful.
I may end up just getting close to a .tex file, and letting you debug
it. Would that be OK? The only TeX I have is on a Mac, and I haven't
used it in years.

That's seems reasonable. Any suggestions for the class name?

Don't duplicate your work. HTML can be generated automatically from LaTeX.
As for making it easy to work with LaTeX, try LyX. It is available for both
Win and Lin. Have a look at www.lyx.org
TeTeX is available also for both (Win, Lin) platforms.
Many thanks for this these pointers. I've learned more in the last
several years than I did in graduate school
