Custom TextArea with real-time syntax highlighting

[victor.martinez]

Hello,

I need to custom a textArea component as real-time syntax highlighting. Having a look in internet i found some projects about textArea syntax highlighting , i'm particular interested in codeMirror JavaScript program:
http://marijn.haverbeke.nl/codemirror/

In order to use this javascript program, you only need to link a js file and css in your html page that holds the textArea, like this...

<script type="text/javascript">
  var editor = CodeMirror.fromTextArea('code', {
    height: "350px",
    parserfile: "parsexml.js",
    stylesheet: "css/xmlcolors.css",
    path: "js/",
    continuousScanning: 500
  });
</script>

Conclusion, How can I create some custom a textArea ext-gwt component, that include
all this features ? Is posible ?

Thanks
