Can anyone please suggest me a good open source C# code editor control with syntax highlighting and intellisense to use in my application. I am not asking for any IDE like VS or #develop, I need only a winform code editor control so that I can use it in my application for scripting. Can you please suggest me a good one ...

I found ScintillaNET, but I want some other alternative..

Sounds like you want something like Avalon Edit:

The editor for SharpDevelop, but its also a component you can download and use on your own stuff.

Wpf Source Code Editor is an alternative for ScintillaNET

WPF SOURCE CODE EDITOR is a Superb...intellisense...

I used the SharpDevelop code to do this a while back. Another alternative might be to take a look at the code for MonoDevelop and see if you can pull out the part you need and reuse that. Technically MonoDevelop is a fork of SharpDevelop but its been a long time so they might be completely different now.

After considering all the options I decided to go for ScintillaNet, cause it is very easy to use.
