public interface Parser

An interface for a parser for content in an RSyntaxTextArea. A Parser returns a list of issues it finds in the text area's content, which the text area can flag (e.g. squiggle underline). It can also return descriptions of the issues, to be used in tool tips.

To install a Parser, simply call RSyntaxTextArea.addParser(Parser).
