Highlight changed lines

Open artar94 opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

It would be great to mark changed and saved lines in the line number column.

Any change to a line should mark it with a single color, such as yellow. After saving the file, all changed lines should change color to another, for example, green. It is not necessary to save the state of the marks, this only works in an open file and is reset after closing.

This tool makes it much easier to find all the changes in large files. You can see how this is implemented in other text editors or code editors: image

Current beta version tries to use Scintillas (v5.3.0) new feature Change History. We still need some suggestions for configuration (already in dev pipe: switch ON/OFF, margin view only, doc view only, both vies), further suggestions are wellcome.

Wow, this works very well! Special thanks for highlighting individual characters! It was good to add color customization through the scheme. I would like to make the colors less bright, this is not something that should take the main attention.

Everything works as expected, I think it can be closed. Thanks a lot!
