[Lazarus] Synedit Gutter - current line number a different color

[Graeme Geldenhuys]

Hi,

Attached is a screenshot of how my Lazarus editor now looks.  I used to
have the current line in the editor source code with a slightly dulled
background color, but that interfered (made it hard to see) the Special
Characters (tab characters) I now have enabled.

I couldn't see an option for this, so I hacked my copy of SynEdit to
draw the current line number in a different color instead.
I attached the patch if anybody else wanted to apply something similar
to their Lazarus.

PS:
I believe when changing the source code current line background color,
it cause more redrawing in Synedit - thus slowing down the editor a bit.
Maybe just painting the gutter line number keeps the performance - but
with a similar effect?


Regards,
