If you could try something else, I would try mousepad (which actually is a fork of leafpad). https://packages.debian.org/mousepad https://docs.xfce.org/apps/mousepad/start If you would be ready to try something new and are not afraid of massive amount of settings (and thereby possibilities) but still GTK-based, I would try SciTE. https://packages.debian.org/scite (Yes, I am biased regarding SciTE, since I'm one of the Debian package maintainers). -- Andreas Rönnquist mailingli...@gusnan.se andr...@ronnquist.net
