An activemark mechanism for a live parsing editor. The activemark mechanism allows marks (labels) in text to be referenced or linked to any editor command, macro, or any, external tool activated by the editor. The activemark mechanism comprises a parsing mechanism, which creates an activemark automatically when the document is loaded in the editor, and thereafter, as a user enters information into the document by parsing the changes to the document as they are, committed. The activemarks are dynamic in that their meaning and behaviour are updated in the, context of any external tool which is activated by the editor.

Why it's free to use
- Filed September 10, 1998. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended September 10, 2018.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 10, 2020.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
