        var parser = new SyntaxParser();
        var edit = new SyntaxEdit();
        edit.Parent = this;
        edit.Lexer = parser;
        parser.CodeCompletionChars = ".(<>,{[\"'/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ= ".ToCharArray();

        string fileName = "myfile.cs";
        if (System.IO.File.Exists(fileName))
        {

Imports System

Partial Public Class Form1
    Inherits Form

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        Dim parser = New SyntaxParser()
        Dim edit = New SyntaxEdit()
        edit.Parent = Me
        edit.Lexer = parser
        parser.CodeCompletionChars = ".(<>,{[""'/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ= ".ToCharArray()
        Dim fileName As String = "myfile.cs"

        If System.IO.File.Exists(fileName) Then
            parser.FileName = fileName
            edit.LoadFile(fileName)
