Hi,
I'm writing a plugin editor, and I would like to highlight portions of text
with red squiggles.
Is there an example somewhere that shows what is involved? Or any other
resources which might help me figure it out? (I'm an experienced programmer
but an eclipse newbie. I tried Google without much success.)
If not, can someone suggest some good starting places to begin digging in
the eclipse code? Also, is this the right forum to ask this, or is there a
better one?
Thanks.

What would those squiggles stand for? It's quite easy to do:
1. register your own marker type (optional) via
org.eclipse.core.resources.markers extension point
2. register your annotation type via
org.eclipse.ui.editors.annotationTypes extension point
3. setup the UI preferences for your annotation type using the
org.eclipse.ui.editors.markerAnnotationSpecification extension point
4. now you can simply add annotations of your type to the editors
annotation model, see IAnnotationModel.addAnnotation(...)
