According to the documentation I should be able to use the following code to clear the editor:
int start_selection = 0;
int end_selection = 0;
int selection_range = 0;
// Set the 'target' range to be the whole document.
end_selection = (int)CallScintilla(SCI_GETTEXTLENGTH, 0, 0);
selection_range = (end_selection - start_selection);
CallScintilla(SCI_DELETERANGE, start_selection, selection_range);
However the last character stays in the editor.
This looks to me as a bug.
Thanks for looking into this issue
