Option to show end-of-lines marks only for wrapped lines about cudatext HOT 11 CLOSED

The big and popular Microsoft Visual Studio (from where the name "VSCode" came from) is another example of editor having this feature:

I can clearly see the utility of this feature. When you're reading a line, when you reach right edge there's currently no way to know if the line ends there or if it was wrapped. You need to move your eyes left to check lines number bar.

Cuda has the feature to display wrap line indicator, but it comes with the unwanted indicator to all the other normal lines, for which I see no use for so I don't want to enable normal EOL indicator, it's a distraction, a bloat for me.

That's why I'm suggesting a way to display only wrap line indicator, without enabling normal end of line indicator. Just like the two screenshots I posted (Visual Studio and Textadept).

It is good argument, thanks, accepted.

I prefer the way it is now (next to last char), but some may like the other, as in the Visual Studio screenshot I posted above.

Then maybe let's postpone it until the request.

this mark follows which color theme ui item?

'editor, unprinted chars, font'.

Added (will be in next update):

• add: option "renreder_tweaks" has additional flag to draw wrapped-line-mark at the right edge

from cudatext.

It also allows user to define if mark should be fixed at the right side or next to last char. It would be good to be able to choose. I'd probably use next-to-last-char, as in the screenshot above.

Maybe I will consider it, later (weeks/months).

I don't know how much it is needed, probably not much and noone needs it. Only few users of Textadept...

New flag in "unprinted_content" is 'E' == 'show ONLY wrapped-parts marks'. it needs 'e' too. please test.

Looks good to me, thanks!

A possible improvement is allowing user to set if the mark will be fixed at right edge or if it should be next to last char of the line (current).

offtopic: this mark follows which color theme ui item? I'd like to change its color.
