StackOverflowError in JavaKeywords demo

[Zomis]

I tried to add Syntax Highlighting by looking at this example: https://github.com/TomasMikula/RichTextFX/blob/master/richtextfx-demos/src/main/java/org/fxmisc/richtext/demo/JavaKeywords.java

but I ran into a StackOverflowError whenever I started the application or edited the text. I thought that I must be doing something wrong so I tried to use your JavaKeywords.java exactly, but that also throws StackOverflowError on startup.

The Stack Overflow loop is:

java version "1.8.0_25"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_25-b18)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.25-b02, mixed mode)

Downloading and running java -cp richtextfx-demos-fat-0.6.8.jar org.fxmisc.richtext.demo.JavaKeywords does work fine. Same with cloning repo and running gradle JavaKeywords, which makes me feel like there is something that I'm doing incorrectly, but what? Why the Stack Overflow Error?

Hi Simon,

do you mind sharing your code? Otherwise I can't tell whether you are doing something wrong or there is a bug.

Note that the JavaKeywords demo changed slightly in 0.6.8, and the way it does syntax highlighting would not work in previous versions (you would get a stack overflow that looks like the one you posted and was mentioned here). So please make sure you use 0.6.8 for your development as well.

Apparently I wasn't using 0.6.8. That solved it, thanks.
