here is a link i found on reddit
 https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/compilers101/info

posted by our well know member Ed Davis ...i don't know that he is active there too  :D
where he explain something about code editors atto and how to build code editor in less than 1000lines of
C code ... unfortunatelly i doubt that this compile under windows  :-\

Unfortunatelly ..most of this c-raps tend to build AST

That's exaggerated, 26 lines should be enough:

GuiMenu equ @Files, &New..., &Open..., &Save, &Build, -, E&xit, @Edit, Cut, Copy, Paste, @Options, Settings, @Help, &About
GuiParas equ "Editor demo", x100, y50, w900, h600      ; menu and paras are optional, if omitted, title is filename
include \masm32\MasmBasic\Res\MbGui.asm         ; part of MasmBasic (http://masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=94.0)
GuiControl MyEdit, "RichEdit", wCL$(), font -16        ; use Unicode commandline and a big font (use MakeFont for special needs)
GuiControl MyStatus, "statusbar", "Ready, Готовы, 準備, ..."

Event Menu
  Switch_ MenuID
  Case_ 0: SetWin$ hMyEdit=0    ; pass a nullpointer to clear the control
  Case_ 1
        .if wFileOpen$("Unicode text=*.txu|Plain text=*.txt|Rich text=*.as?;*.rtf|All files=*.*", "Select a file", "Добро_пожаловать.txu")
               SetWin$ hMyEdit=wFileRead$(wFileOpen$())        ; do not use wSetWin$
        .endif
  Case_ 2
        .if FileSave$("Plain text=*.txt|Rich text=*.as?;*.rtf|All files=*.*")
                .if MbOfn.nFilterIndex==2
                                FileWrite FileSave$(), stream:hMyEdit   ; rich text
                .else
                                FileWrite FileSave$(), Win$(hMyEdit)    ; normal text
                .endif
        .endif
  Case_ 3
        FileWrite "tmpBuild.asm", Win$(hMyEdit)
        Launch Cat$("build.bat tmpBuild.asm"
  Case_ 4 .. 9
        MsgBox 0, Str$("Menu #%i not yet implemented", MenuID), "Hi", MB_OK
  Endsw_
GuiEnd

It depends a bit on your needs, of course: RichMasm (http://masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=5314.0) is a bit over 20,000 lines now ;)

Dude ....
you know with that amount of code I expect totally new assembler/compiler/linker
right?

The totally new assembler is here (http://www.terraspace.co.uk/uasm.html#p2). RichMasm is an editor (http://masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=5314.0), and a very special one. If you deal with a 30,000+ lines source, RichMasm offers some great functionality. Inter alia, I use it also to build my BASIC, C and Pascal sources. I would never use one of those toy editors for a complex task ;)

wow UASM looking good but is not ASMosphere and i am not asm programmer

RichMasm is a standalone editor :)
