I wish to change the color of a keyword the moment it is typed in the
JTextArea . I have made my  own document class extending PlainDocument
and I am successfully able to trap the event that my keyword has been
typed . But ...but... how do i change the color of that particular word
? I did not find any way to selectively change the text color.

Please help.
thanking u in anticipation ...
Vikas
