Custom formatting text?

Question

I some documents with custom formatting in them, for example if a sentence was:
This should be {red}color.
Then the world "color" should be red and the {red} should not appear.
Now my current way of doing this it though a JTextPane.
I do something like this (currently dont have the code with me so it may not be 100% accurate):
// Get our temp
String temp = this.getText ( );
// Get our pos
int pos = temp.indexOf ( "{red}" );
// Set the first half
this.setText ( temp.substring ( 0, pos ) );
// Set the second half
this.setText ( this.getText ( ) + temp.substring ( pos + 6, temp.length ( ) - pos - 6 );
styledDocument.setCharacterAttributes(pos, this.getText ( ).length ( ) - pow, styledDocument.getStyle ("Red" ), false);Is their any better ways to do this?
Can I automatically do like a
styledDocument.addReplace ( "{red}", styledDocument.getStyle ("Red" ) ); So that it will automatically know what to replace? Thanks for any help!

Can I automatically do like a styledDocument.addReplace ( "{red}",
styledDocument.getStyle ("Red" ) ); So that it will automatically know what to replace? No idea what you are asking. You can write you own method to do that if you want. But the StyledDocument can't do that for you.
