Program settings - General editor settings

The general settings allow you to customize the editor in general terms, ie most of the settings that did not find their own category are in the "General" category. The "General" category is divided into two subcategories: "General settings" and "Colors of lines with tasks to be performed"

General settings

This group of settings includes settings with the following meaning:

Wrap long lines in the editor by default
Check this option to enable line wrapping for newly opened documents. Newly opened documents are those that do not have an assigned ADD file where line wrapping is set.

Document buttons at the top of the screen
Check this option to enable the display of buttons for switching documents at the top of the screen. If you disable, the document buttons will be at the bottom of the screen.

Shorten the title on document buttons to "n" characters
This option causes the document title to be shortened to the number of characters indicated next to it when document titles are displayed on document selection bar buttons.

To-do lines colors

In this group of settings there are lists that allow you to choose a color for the lines where there are tasks to be performed. You can assign colors to tasks depending on their priorities. The background color list allows you to select the color you want to use as the background color for where the to-do task is marked. The text color list allows you to select the color you want to use as the text color for where to mark the to-do.

In addition, you can turn off the highlighting in the editor of lines containing a task to be performed (all or only those marked as completed).
