I guess Neil added this because somebody wanted it. I can see that there are times when knowing what was changed in a session is useful. Since last save is maybe less useful since most IDEs have autosave and lots of people seem to like it.
But as @b4n points out there are operations that can produce unusable results when blindly recording lines edited since session start. Other IDEs (the ones I tested) show diffs to git, not just the session, thats probably more useful. Maybe, depends how good the diff algorithm is, I'm sure we all have seen excessive github diffs for small changes. Styling just needs "somebody" to add settings for the relevant marker and indicator types to the colour schemes files. Anyway, its in Scintilla, we might as well make it available to users, the only question is by default or not. I don't have a strong feeling either way. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/3551#issuecomment-1751891174 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
