   I was actually leaning towards allowing a colour to be specified as
that allows various borders to be drawn although we can always add
more margin types such as a dotted line to look like this:
http://www.actiprosoftware.com/Products/DotNet/SyntaxEditor/Default.aspx
   So implement SC_MARGIN_SPACER.

   Doing so would make this more messy than I like. You could
implement this by subclassing Scintilla to get first look at all mouse
events.

   If users choose to hide things then they will get less convenient
access to features: even with all margins hidden, triple-clicking

Done. I have taken the "least change" approach, and added a new bool to
MarginStyle(). The code changes are small, and all the users like it.

However, it occurred to me (seeing you mentioned the idea of drawing a line)
that there is another way to implement this in a 100% backwards compatible
way.

We could make the second argument to SetMarginTypeN call a set of flags,
then you could have:

SC_MARGIN_SYMBOL = 0	// as now
SC_MARGIN_NUMBER = 1	// as now
SC_MARGIN_SPACER = 2	// STYLE_DEFAULT background
SC_MARGIN_LINERIGHT = 4 // draw line on right of margin
etc

Do you have any preference for implementation? I can send you the changed
files either way.

   Sticking the first flag just after an enumeration is rather
constraining. For the line, I would have defined another type like
SC_MARGIN_SPACER and filled that margin with a line drawing colour
(probably STYLE_DEFAULT.fore). Then the client code may define light,
dark, or grey lines or areas independently. If there are flags then it
should be at, say, 16 or 32 to allow expansion of the enumeration
part.

OK, I think I got it. Something like:
SC_MARGIN_SYMBOL = 0    	// as now
SC_MARGIN_NUMBER = 1    	// as now
SC_MARGIN_TYPEMASK = 0x1f	// Mask for allowed types	

SC_MARGIN_SPACER = 32    	// STYLE_DEFAULT background
SC_MARGIN_FILLER = 64 	 	// STYLE_DEFAULT foreground
SC_MARGIN_TYPEFLAG = 0xffffffe0

If you confirm that this is OK, I'll get on and do it.

I would like to see

1) any user adjusted folding state and,
2) any user bookmarked lines

to persist into a saved session (.ses) so upon next
session open/reload, all previously info are restored. 

Anyone aware of any editor that does this at the moment??

SciTE 1.69 is the version in question. See attached PNG 
image "SciTE_REBOL_sample.png" for example of where the 
REBOL lexer fails to account for the CHAR datatype. All 
characters after the trailing " are treated as 
belonging to the SciTE properties file. Note the 
correct parsing of the comment in green in the previous 
line.

   No, that's even more complex. The 'flags' sentence was conditional:
if you don't need flags then don't add them. How about

SC_MARGIN_SYMBOL=0
SC_MARGIN_NUMBER=1
SC_MARGIN_BACK=2
SC_MARGIN_FORE=3

Summary: Find mark question when printing

Initial Comment:
When you enable "find.mark" Scite v1.69, and select a 
pdf printer, the find mark area will become a light-
red area. And sometimes, the part of last letter will 
be out of this area.

OK,

SC_MARGIN_SYMBOL=0
SC_MARGIN_NUMBER=1
SC_MARGIN_BACK=2
SC_MARGIN_FORE=3

It shall be.

SciTE license

SciTE is being added to the fedora-extras repository - thanks to  Jorge
Torres who's packaging it - and there are some doubts about its license.

I pointed out that SciTE and scintilla are licensed under the Python
license, but there are other opinions such as the MIT license and  the
"Historical Permission Notice and Disclaimer" as it seems is stated on
the Wikipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scite

So this mail is to request an authoritative answer from Neil on what
license tag should be used in the SciTE package.

Thanks in advance.
