The javax.swing.JEditorPane supports text/rtf 
(http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/javax/swing/JEditorPane.html).  From 
that page:

  This component uses implementations of the EditorKit to accomplish its
  behavior. It effectively morphs into the proper kind of text editor for the 
  kind of content it is given.

The javax.swing.text.rtf.RTFEditorKit does the work 
(http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/javax/swing/text/rtf/RTFEditorKit.html).

That page says:

  This is the default implementation of RTF editing functionality. The RTF 
  support was not written by the Swing team. In the future we hope to improve 
  the support provided. 

So, if you download the java source, you'll find it there.  This might not be 
suitable depending on -why- you want the source code though.. :-)

If you can't find a copy of the source code, I can pass it on... (I wonder if 
that breaks the license agreement..)
