IDE line number doesn't update

[Sean Cole (Pi)]

Hi Tiemo,

This is an issue dating all the way back to LC9.0.0. It has been raised
several times in this list and on the bug report platform. Other issues
surrounding it have been 'fixed' but this one seems elusive. One thread
mentioned someone was working on an alternative script editor but it is not
ready for the masses.

I was recommended by Trevor DeVore to use Levure and have my whole app
using script-only stacks. That way I could use Atom to open and work on
scripts. Not an option for me as my stack is so huuuge that there is no
easy way (or even a practical long way) to convert it all over to
Script-Only.

Following the thread of bugs around this, I've ended up at Bug 23117
<https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=23117> which I have added a
new comment to regarding the script editor. Since this has been around
since 9.0.0, I can't imagine it being repaired any time soon.

Sean
