Suppose i have a text box "QTextEdit" then when i type a statement like, !! nikhil a python programmer

The text box should have nikhil in green text and python in Yellow Highlighted. Just as out Python IDLE has color for each keywords, something like that!

I tried manipulating HTML content in QTextEdit, no luck with it!

Fellow Programmer if you can help me then please help me.

Thanks in Advance!!

@MalloyDelacroix except that its about textEdit not textbrowser. – Nikhil.Nixel Apr 28 '18 at 15:42
QTextBrowser inherits the methods used in that answer from QTextEdit. – MalloyDelacroix Apr 28 '18 at 15:49
Ok Let me try it out. – Nikhil.Nixel Apr 28 '18 at 16:06
@Nikhil. It sounds like you want some kind of syntax highlighting. See [this answer](https://stackoverflow.com/q/40155268/984421) for a simple example. – ekhumoro Apr 28 '18 at 16:24
