[Geany] A way to toggle highlight current line on and off ?

[Lee Gold]

Enrico,

Regarding "why?":  I will not totally play here:^) 

I admit my compliment to Geany is a slap at other editors. I will own that and it is solely my opinion.

Initially I don't like high light current line, but after a few hours I pine for it. I'm a human looking at a machine. Is harmless distraction so bad a sin after hours of looking at a screen? Maybe it helps my eyes to refocus.

IMO as good an editor as this could not be conceived of and coded without a psycho-visual sensibility on the part of it's creators. I'm sure you must expect some variability:^)

Just for my curiosity, why?

Again, why?  :)


The reason there is no keybinding or other short way of toggling the
display of line numbers is because usually users want them always or
never. I never guessed they should be easily toggle-able, this is why
I'm curious you asking for that.

Enrico
