Hello, For a project I have to import some markings into vim and for that I'm writing a plugin. These markings are in the form of: line start, coloumn start, //the start character index line end, coloumn end, //the end character index message
over the signs I have managed to mark the lines and display the message when the cursor is on the line. But now I need to highlight the characters, like a search does it when hlsearch is enabled, and the only thing i found is the matchadd() methode and commands like :match, but all of these work with a pattern. But i just need a straight forward mark exactly that mechanism which works on a line coloumn basis. I would much apriciate it if someone could point me in the right direction.
