TextPad Component for use in our own programs.

Rather than reinventing the wheel, any chance of releasing the editor portion of TextPad as either an ActiveX or .NET control to use in our own programs? A lot of the features I'd love to see (file management, UI customization, etc.) I already have in another editor program I've written, but the actual editing window itself in TextPad is the best in the business I feel. Having a control would allow me to implement the UI the way I like while keeping the rock-solid code of the editor where it belongs... with TextPad.

For reference, I'd gladly pay $100 for a developer license and perhaps even a few hundred for a redistributable version of the control.

I was looking around to see if TextPad did this (activex interface) and judging from the lack of people having easily searchable problems about it, I assume this is not a current feature =)

So yeah, this is my enhancement suggesion as well.
