Hi all,
1. Is it possible to add prompt in TSynEdit?
2. How can I disable the rightmost line of the TSynEdit?
Thanks.

I found the second question answer. Options/eoHideRightMargin = True.

By prompt you mean like vi or emacs has?

No SynEdit does not have it.
You could add a TEdit and show/hide it as required.

SynEdit displays only the text that is in the textbuffer
(SynEdit.Lines).

You can add a">" to that text.
For highlighting you can use SynPositionHighlighter.

But it will not be write protected, and the caret can go there.
