Sorry, should have included that. GPS 2017 (20170515) hosted on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu GNAT GPL 2017 (20170515-63) I'm on Gentoo Linux. [I] dev-ada/gps Available versions: (~)2017^t ~2018^t {doc PYTHON_TARGETS=3D"python2_= 7"} Installed versions: 2017^t(12:53:03 29/04/2018)(-doc PYTHON_TARGETS= =3D"python2_7") Suppose I could try to get the 2018 version installed. >=20 > > 1.

When cursor is at top of file, I s= ee line numbers up to 4. If I scroll down so that (4) goes up at the top, s= uddenly 5 to 11 appear. As you say, Weird. >=20 > I'm pretty sure that is a user setting (but I can't remember where/how > you set it). I thought as much but there isn't anything marked "selected text colour" or= words to that effect... unless this is another bug in the 2017 version. So= didn't know if it was just not there, or hiding under some obtuse descript= ion. I could not find any mention of it in the online docs (hence asking ex= perts here :- ) Will try to rewrite that code reading the file to do some sort of while-not= -end-of-file.... Thanks, Ian
