For the admin panel, you should use a code editor, not a wysiwyg editor, as you can not use bold text in a script, it is just plain text. But anyway, most wysiwyg editors are an extension of a textarea, and can be accessed like every form element. Please note: most wysiwyg editors have different modes, e.g. plaintext, html. The value of the textarea depends on what is the mode.

Example:

This is what you see when you write in the textarea:

Blue is the best color.

And the value of the textarea can be:

Blue is the best color.

or

Blue is the <b>best</b> <u>color</u>.

Depending on the mode, you should check out NicEdit, it is a very good wysiwyg editor: http://nicedit.com/
