Hi,
I want to have a control similar to the org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Text, where I can edit a string of text. This text should contain hyperlinks, so when the mouse hovers over specific words, the cursor changes into the "hand"-symbol, and when clicked, some event happens. Also, the hyperlinks should be styled in some way to show that they are hyperlinks, for example by underlining them or changing the color.
Is there an existing control which does something like this, or will I have to build my own?
In case I have to build my own, do you have any good suggestions on how to go about it?

Take a look at org.eclipse.swt.custom.StyledText and
org.eclipse.swt.SWT.UNDERLINE_LINK.
