Credits

Special Thanks to

licenser (Heinz N. Gies) for ending my QBasic career, inventing the Coder project and the input/output plugin system. CodeRay would not exist without him.

Thanks to

Caleb Clausen for writing RubyLexer and lots of very interesting mail traffic

Free

As you can see, CodeRay was created under heavy use of free software.
So CodeRay is also free.
If you use CodeRay to create software, think about making this software free, too.
Thanks :)
