How to
To set the highlight areas you can add the following statements programmatically:
emphasisTextView.setText("SALAD");
emphasisTextView.setTextToHighlight("sa");
emphasisTextView.setHighlightColor("#ff3393b4");
emphasisTextView.setCaseInsensitive(true);
emphasisTextView.highlight();
Please check the sample project for some more working examples.

Feel free to open a pull request for anything that you want to see added.
What I have in mind:
-
Introduce a delegate when someone is using another class that is already extending from TextView (possibly another library).
-
Create similar functionality via xml attributes.
