Update to scintilla 5.4.3 (from 5.4.1) & Lexilla 5.3.1
Sintilla [Release 5.4.3](https://www.scintilla.org/scintilla543.zip)
* Release 5.4.3: Released 9 March 2024
1. Fix redo failure introduced with 5.4.2. [Bug #2432](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2432/).
2. Add SC_AUTOCOMPLETE_SELECT_FIRST_ITEM option to always selects the first item in the autocompletion list. [Bug #2403](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2403/).
* Release 5.4.2: Released 5 March 2024
1. Significantly reduce memory used for undo actions, often to a half or quarter of previous versions. Feature #1458.
2. Add APIs for saving and restoring undo history.
3. For GTK, when laying out text, detect runs with both left-to-right and right-to-left ranges and divide into an ASCII prefix and more complex suffix. Lay out the ASCII prefix in the standard manner but, for the suffix, measure the whole width and spread that over the suffix bytes. This produces more usable results where the caret moves over the ASCII prefix correctly and over the suffix reasonably but not accurately.
4. For ScintillaEdit on Qt, fix reference from ScintillaDocument to Document to match change in 5.4.1 using IDocumentEditable for SCI_GETDOCPOINTER and SCI_SETDOCPOINTER.
5. For Direct2D on Win32, use the multi-threaded option to avoid crashes when Scintilla instances created on different threads. There may be more problems with this scenario so it should be avoided. Bug #2420.
6. For Win32, ensure keyboard-initiated context menu appears in multi-screen situations.
Lexilla [Release 5.3.1](https://www.scintilla.org/lexilla531.zip)
* Release 5.3.1: Released 5 March 2024
1. Assembler: After comments, treat \r\n line ends the same as \n. This makes testing easier.
2. Bash: Fix folding when line changed to/from comment and previous line is comment. Issue #224.
3. Batch: Fix handling ':' next to keywords. Issue #222.
4. JavaScript: in cpp lexer, add lexer.cpp.backquoted.strings=2 mode to treat ` back-quoted strings as template literals which allow embedded ${expressions}. Issue #94.
5. Python: fix lexing of rb'' and rf'' strings. Issue #223, Pull request #227.
6. Ruby: fix lexing of methods on numeric literals like '3.times' so the '.' and method name do not appear in numeric style. Issue #225.

< li > Version 5.4.2 can save and restore undo history.< / li >
Updated to Scintilla 5.4.1 & Lexilla 5.3.0
Scintilla 5.4.1
https://www.scintilla.org/scintilla541.zip
Released 27 December 2023.
1. Add IDocumentEditable interface to allow efficient interaction with document objects which may not be visible in a Scintilla instance. This feature is provisonal and may change before being declared stable. For better type-safety, the ScintillaCall C++ API uses IDocumentEditable* where void* was used before which may require changes to client code that uses document pointer APIs DocPointer, SetDocPointer, CreateDocument, AddRefDocument, and ReleaseDocument.
2. Ctrl-click on a selection deselects it in multiple selection mode.
3. Add SCI_SELECTIONFROMPOINT for modifying multiple selections.
4. Add SCI_SETMOVEEXTENDSSELECTION and SCI_CHANGESELECTIONMODE to simplify selection mode manipulation.
5. Improve performance of global replace by reducing cache invalidation overhead. [Feature #1502](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/feature-requests/1502/).
6. Fix regular expression search for "\<" matching beginning of search when not beginning of word and for "\>" not matching line end. [Bug #2157](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2157/).
7. Fix regular expression search failure when search for "\<" followed by search for "\>". [Bug #2413](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2413/).
8. Fix regular expression assertion (^, $, \b. \B) failures when using SCFIND_CXX11REGEX. [Bug #2405](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2405/).
9. Fix regular expression bug in reverse direction where shortened match returned. [Bug #2405](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2405/).
10. Avoid character fragments in regular expression search results. [Bug #2405](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2405/).
11. With a document that does not have the SC_DOCUMENTOPTION_TEXT_LARGE option set, allocating more than 2G (calling SCI_ALLOCATE or similar) will now fail with SC_STATUS_FAILURE.
12. Protect SCI_REPLACETARGET, SCI_REPLACETARGETMINIMAL, and SCI_REPLACETARGETRE from application changing target in notification handlers. [Bug #2289](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2289/).
Lexilla 5.3.0
https://www.scintilla.org/lexilla530.zip
Released 27 December 2023.
1. Fix calling AddStaticLexerModule by defining as C++ instead of C which matches header. [Bug #2421](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2421/).
2. Bash: Fix shift operator << incorrectly recognized as here-doc. [Issue #215](https://github.com/ScintillaOrg/lexilla/issues/215).
3. Bash: Fix termination of '${' with first unquoted '}' instead of nesting. [Issue #216](https://github.com/ScintillaOrg/lexilla/issues/216).
4. HTML: JavaScript double-quoted strings may escape line end with '\'. [Issue #214](https://github.com/ScintillaOrg/lexilla/issues/214).
5. Lua: recognize --- doc comments. Defined by [LDoc](https://github.com/lunarmodules/ldoc). Does not recognize --[[-- doc comments which seem less common.

< a href = "ScintillaDoc.html" > Scintilla< / a > is a free source code editing component.
It comes with complete source code and a < a href = "https://www.scintilla.org/License.txt" > license< / a > that
permits use in any free project or commercial product.
< / p >
< p >
As well as features found in standard text editing components, Scintilla includes features
especially useful when editing and debugging source code.
These include support for syntax styling, error indicators, code completion and call tips.
The selection margin can contain markers like those used in debuggers to indicate
breakpoints and the current line. Styling choices are more open than with many editors,
allowing the use of proportional fonts, bold and italics, multiple foreground and background
colours and multiple fonts.
< / p >
< p >
Current development occurs on the default branch as 5.* which requires a recent
C++ compiler that supports C++17.

< a href = "https://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html" > SciTE< / a > is a SCIntilla based Text Editor. Originally built to
demonstrate Scintilla, it has grown to be a generally useful editor with facilities for
building and running programs. It is best used for jobs with simple configurations - I use it
for building test and demonstration programs as well as SciTE and Scintilla, themselves.
< / p >
< p >
Development of Scintilla started as an effort to improve the text editor in PythonWin. After
being frustrated by problems in the Richedit control used by PythonWin, it looked like the
best way forward was to write a new edit control. The biggest problem with Richedit and other
similar controls is that they treat styling changes as important persistent changes to the
document so they are saved into the undo stack and set the document's dirty flag. For source
code, styling should not be persisted as it can be mechanically recreated.

< p >
Scintilla and SciTE are currently available for Intel Win32, macOS, and Linux compatible operating
systems with GTK. They have been run on Windows XP, Windows 7, macOS 10.9+, and on Ubuntu 18.04
with GTK 2.24. < a href = "https://www.scintilla.org/SciTEImage.html" > Here is a screenshot of
