Here is how to use a ReadOnly in the C# code:

using Alternet.Editor;
using Alternet.Editor.TextSource;

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    private TextSource textSource;
    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        var syntaxEdit = new SyntaxEdit(this.components);
        textSource = new TextSource(this.components);
        textSource.LoadFile("myfile.txt");
        textSource.ReadOnly = true;

        syntaxEdit.Source = this.textSource;
    }
}

Here is how to use a ReadOnly in the Visual Basic code:

Imports Alternet.Editor
Imports Alternet.Editor.TextSource

Partial Public Class Form1
    Inherits Form

    Private textSource As TextSource

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        Dim syntaxEdit = New SyntaxEdit(Me.components)
        textSource = New TextSource(Me.components)
        textSource.LoadFile("myfile.txt")
        textSource.ReadOnly = True

        syntaxEdit.Source = Me.textSource
    End Sub
End Class

Remarks

Set <Alternet.Editor.TextSource.TextSource.ReadOnly> property to true to restrict any changes within the text.
