I want to make (have, actually) a custom syntax highlighting for gedit.
There would be just a few different items:
A line that begins with 2 tabs. ----- One color.
A line that begins with 3 tabs. ----- Another color.
A line that begins with 4 tabs. ----- Another color.
and a line that begins with INT. or EXT. ----- Another Color.
This is for writing a screenplay.
I looked at the language definition wiki page for gedit but it is way over my head.
Is there a simple way I could do this?

I've written a script in Notepad++, and I want to highlight individual lines based on who is speaking. I'm just trying to find a place where I can change text color or background color for individual lines. Is there anything built into Notepad++ that does that?

I'm reading a lot of pdf articles in Adobe Acrobat Pro and highlighting specific sections.
I would like to know if it is possible to extract just the text I highlighted from these pdf files?

Is it possible to pipe some output (e.g. dmesg) to a command like less (or an equivalent command) and keep the text highlighting used by the original command printing?
example: on the left dmesg | less on the right dmesg

When I read something I need to underscore what I like, or what I think is important, and to take notices about that read, near on that current paragraph.
So, does anyone know a Firefox add-on or something else (another browser, any other application) which can provide me such a functionality?
ps: I've tried some research tools as Zotero, but it is not what I'm looking for.

I'm using terminator on linux/ubuntu. When I do ctrl+shift f, I get a prompt to enter a search key to search my scrollback (terminal output). However, as I go through the search results one by one, none of the results are highlighted. I want them all highlighted like in iterm2 on Mac.
Is this a terminator feature? If so, how do I turn it on?

Is there a way to automatically highlight lines based on predefined rules in Notepad++?
I'm not talking about syntax highlighting, but rather about log files readability.
I'm looking either for a feature I've missed, or a plugin.

In Sublime Text, if you double-click a word in file, all occurrences of that word are highlighted on the page, giving at-a-glance orientation of how a variable or other text is used in the file.
Is there an equivalent shortcut in the Atom text editor?

I am trying to set up rules to highlight both trailing whitespace and lines which are over a certain length by adding this to my .vimrc:
highlight ExtraWhitespace ctermbg=lightgray guibg=lightgray
match ExtraWhitespace /\s\+$/
highlight OverLength ctermbg=lightgray guibg=lightgray
match OverLength /\%>80v.\+/
However, it only seems to pick up whichever is last. I can't find a way to get them to both work simultaneously.

In Notepad++, when I select (eg. double-click) a "word", it gets highlighted. It needs to be separated with a non-alpha character from the rest of the text. The highlight remains until the text is selected.
Is there a way to make this highlight "permanent", ie. remain when the word is not selected any more?
Nice to have: can partial words be highlighted?

I use dark themes and when I select a word, Notepad++ highlights all the occurences of that word in the current document. But the highlight color for matches other than the current word is somehow blended with the background and the highlighted text is not as clearly visible as it could be. The same thing happens when using "Find all" option in the Find dialog to mark the occurences. Is there a way to change this behavior such that the matched text has the same (full) opacity as the selected text?

In days with large email influx, some emails tend to slip out of my attention. Usually these are email where I am not the primary recipient, but I am referenced at some point as having to perform some action. This point may occur after several responses to a thread.
E.g.:
Hello B,
Hello A,
Dear all,
Could someone give me feedback on document X?
Thanks,
A.
Please find my remarks below:
...
Best,
B.
Thank you for the feedback. I have incorporated it in the document.
C, can you make a final proof-reading pass and post it online?
Thanks,
A.
Is there a way in thunderbird to highlight the sentence/paragraph where my name ("C" in this example) or some other configurable keyword occurs, so that I can easily check if I have to take action?
Note that I am looking for a way to identify the part of the message that directly concerns me and not which messages concern me. So, filters/tags won't really help.

I'm not sure why this happened but I am no longer able to click and drag to highlight text in Google Chrome.
Using:
Google Chrome Version 41.0.2272.76 (64-bit)
OS:
Linux Kali 3.18.0-kali3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.18.6-1~kali2 (2015-03-02) x86_64 GNU/Linux
The cursor changes from an arrow to the I-cursor and double clicking to highlight works, as well as holding shift & ctrl, but when I click and drag, the text does not highlight.
Can anyone help?

After a search I've done, all the matches for the respective query remain highlighted and it's annoying. This happens even after I close the respective file (normal behavior?). How to I remove this?
