Thanks for the correction / clarification!
That disappoints me a little--the strikethrough is one "style" that I had
anticipated using with my (maybe/ someday) to be built lexer. OTOH, if I
learn enough C/C++ and the Scintilla code base to build a lexer, maybe it
won't be too hard to either add strikethrough as a style to a lexer, or use
the indicator approach (either in the lexer or maybe a separate plugin or
such.
