[Lazarus] clarification / Re: constant-highlight ? [Re: quick opinion poll / pascal highlighting "case"]

[Krisztián Nagy]

A vote for bold, as it is both readable and these constants also introduce a
block of code like "if...then", "for...do" or "while...do" which are
reserved words -> have the same highlighting as default, so this would be
consistent (yet preserving the string/number/identifier highlighting)

As I see, I'm the only one. No problem I think every opinion is important :P

"probably lot's off people will never know it is even possible."
By the way actually I didn't know till this conversation but now for sure
I'll turn it to bold :)
