You first need to install the pyfontify module for making simple syntax coloring in Text widget. And with Eclipse you can use Pydev, very convenient feature rich plugin.

from appuifw import *
from pyfontify import fontify
import os, e32
 
src = ur"""
__version__ = "0.4"
import string, re, keyword  
commentPat = "#.*"  
# Build up a regular expression
pat = "q[^\q\n]*(\\\\[\000-\377][^\q\n]*)*q"
"""
 
color = { 'keyword': 0x0000ff,
          'string': 0xff00ff,
          'comment': 0x008000,
          'function': 0x008080,
          'class': 0x008080 }
 
t = Text()
pos = 0
for tag, start, end, sl in fontify(src):
    t.color = 0
    t.add(src[pos:start])
    t.color = color[tag]
    t.add(src[start:end])
    pos = end
t.color = 0
t.add(src[pos:])
 
app.body = t
e32.ao_sleep(10)

Issue : This is very slow ! 1 minute for hundred python source lines !
