I have install CB using the last debian package for kubuntu, but how can I apply this patch????
You cannot. If you want to apply this patch, you must compile Code::Blocks yourself from sources (and apply the patch to the respective part of the sources before that).

Basically it is as easy as ./bootstrap && ./configure && make && sudo make install

But there is a better way using fakeroot and debbuild... I don't remember the exact commands, though.
This way would produce a .deb package that you can install and uninstall cleanly.

Surely they don't use Scintilla; but the main point is that these companies carefully study everything. If they all choose NOT to put black line, it is NOT because their devs or someone else didn't like these lines.
As as pointed in my last post, they study scientifically how the brains react and take into account the presence or not of these lines. They concluded that the lines add supplementary work to the brain. The more there are lines on a screen, the more supplementary work for the brain. That means lesser time for the brain to think about everything else.

Interesting explanation! we need these kind
I like specially the "supplementary work to the brain": that's exactly what i feel when reading code with the black lines, even before reading your post!  :D

  • Got to practice :)
just for reference here is a better solution than patching wxscintilla, since it already provides some functions that make the work to hide the underlines when folding, the problem was that it was to hidden and not documented clearly.

Here is the solution

Totally eliminating underlines makes it very hard to pick out braces  :(

Does anyone have the upload by wxLearner (The updated link is broken) ?
or Could anyone patch wxScintilla please?   :o

My project has gone to such deep depths that I am NOT able to focus at all. Kindly help  :)

Try using the folded line indicators as your guides (also try changing indicator style, it may help you another style), thats what I do and I don't get lost in long code.

Since the beginning I had a problem with those black lines.

Even totally eliminating lines it is very hard to follow along with the code.

Can you compile wxScintilla with patches in first page?  :oops:

I will meanwhile try posting in sourceforge forum of wxScintilla.  :?
