Re: Changing comment line color

[Booth Martin <booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In furtherance of discussion:

I do not understand how to do the following, but it says it can be done, 
so there must be a way.

In preferences, LPEX editor, RPG, one can change the foreground color, 
background color, underline, squiggle, or outline of any defined line 
style.   For instance, one can have all comment lines with a red 
foreground and a green background, and with a box around it.

Now, right after "Comment" in the list of line styles there is also 
"Optional comment."  I have never heard of an optional comment so I 
looked it up.  Apparently one can also define User Actions, and one can 
define an "optional comment"???  At that point I ran out of ability to 
understand what was going on.  It appears one can define a new line 
style, and define, in some detail, how it will appear.  Then one just 
uses that line style and Bob's yer uncle, its available in your coding.

But I do not understand User Actions well enough to go farther. Perhaps 
others can go farther with this?
