Character overlays in text-editor [message #879062]

Hi!

I want to create a small JDT plugin which shows "<" and ">" differently depending on whether they are used as brackets or as smaller/bigger signs. Eg when they mean angle brackets then I would show chevrons (tall angle brackets) instead.

I'm afraid the most difficult part is tweaking the editor. Do you have some recommendation how to approach this problem? Any projects which have attempted changing the appearance of characters in editor?
