RTB Writeln Function

[Terrankiller]

I am currently developing an open source IRC server and I am using a Rich Text Box control as a console to display data. This function will append the specified rtb using the specified text, font, font size, color, and style.

Public Sub Writeln(ByRef RTB As RichTextBox, ByVal sText As String, ByVal sFont As String, ByVal fSize As Integer, ByVal fColor As Color, ByVal fStyle As FontStyle)

   RTB.SelectionColor = fColor
   RTB.SelectionFont = New Font(sFont, fSize, fStyle)
   RTB.AppendText(sText & vbNewLine)

End Sub

An example use:

Writeln(RichTextBox1, "Hello World!", "Verdana", 8, Color.Red, 1)
Writeln(RichTextBox1, "This", "Verdana", 8, Color.Blue, 2)
Writeln(RichTextBox1, "is", "Verdana", 8, Color.Green, 3)
Writeln(RichTextBox1, "a", "Verdana", 8, Color.Orange, 4)
Writeln(RichTextBox1, "test!", "Verdana", 8, Color.Yellow, 5)

Picture of the example:

Pretty smooth
Are you making a whole server or just a client?

And if you need a hand here and there just send a message my way or post here and i'll help. I don't mind a little project here and there to sharpen my dwindling skills

I'd be very interested to see the finished product. Really good idea with the Writeln function too. Keep it up.

I am developing a server and client. I am trying to figure out the best way to go about programming both using the .net socket library.
