 * Hi,
 * just wanted to say that I love your plug. Finally a way to spice up the HTML 
   editor.
 * I have one feature request: If you could add syntax highlighting that would be
   super. There are many plugins that highlight code in the frontend, but there 
   is no plugin that highlights syntax (html tags) in the backend html editor.
 * Do you have a paypal donate button somewhere?
 * Cheers,
    Constantin

 * Hi conschneider,
 * Thanks for the support and I am super happy to hear you are enjoying the plugin.
   Syntax highlighting on an dynamic element such as a textarea tag would be quite
   the challenge, and if I get some free time I might just try and tackle it.

 * Hey Zach,
 * Thank you for the fast answer. I could not give it a rest and after five hours
   of search I found a plug that does code highlighting. It even plays nice with
   your TRUEedit.

 * I googled the EasyArea editor which is mentioned in the plugin readme to no avail
   and the plugin website is alas down. Maybe you can build on wp-advanced-code-
   editor. I ll go and hit that donate button now.
 * Best regards,
    Constantin
