Can anyone guide me how to mark text in my source code in gedit as shown below ("TODO" word was marked with yellow color)?
I can't find a feature in the editor for me to apply this highlighting (so it persists) to other parts of text, beyond what is automatically highlighted. Is this possible?
I've uploaded my source (one small file) if you have gedit and want to view the highlighting to see what I'm trying to reproduce.
I think that searching text with Ctrl+K will leave the text searched highlighted, otherwise you can look at the Smart Highlighting plugin for gedit .
If the highlight is not a consequence of a mark, it is clear that it rely on the synthax highlighter set for the current programming language ...
gedit provides syntax highlighting for a wide range of markup,
programming, and scientific languages. If gedit recognizes the syntax
being used when you open a file, it will automatically highlight the
text. If your syntax or language is not highlighted upon startup, you
can select the appropriate syntax or language by clicking View ▸
Highlight Mode, and then choosing the desired syntax. Alternately, you
can select the syntax name from a list at the bottom of the gedit
window.

I found out I can highlight pdfs with okular in-file by the review tool, but everytime I use the highlighter, it gets turned off afterwards again, so to highlight the next piece of text I have to activate it again.
I would like to change this behaviour to 'toggle' on off by clicking (or pressing 4), and not have it turn off automatically.
I saw here that the tools can be modified, but it doesn't mention toggling.
Double-clicking the tool solves it, as I found in a Bug report pointing to the manual.
You have to select the Pin button ( its the one at the right most) and then click the Highlighter button
Double-click didn't work for me.
Clicking:
"Highlighter"
and then "Keep Active"
worked for me
(Press F6 if you don't see the "Highlighter button")

How do I access Stylistic Sets in Adobe Illustrator.
For example this font. Which I have installed has Stylistic sets:
http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/debi-sementelli/cantoni/
This could vary quite considerably depending on the version of Illustrator you're using. In Illustrator CS6 (I'm afraid that I don't have other versions with which to test), you can access your OpenType Stylistic Alternates by;
Selecting your text (with appropriate font selected)
Open the OpenType window by going to WINDOW > TYPE > OPENTYPE
Here you should see numerous options - many of which may or may not be available, depending on your font - but amongst which are 'Stylistic Alternates', 'Swash' and 'Contextual Alternates', etc.
If you want to view the various characters (rather than switching settings), you might more usefully go to WINDOW > TYPE > GLYPHS. You can then use the 'Show' dropdown box to see a visual grid of all the characters the font provides.
Hope that helps.

I have a PDF with the following text:
Localização
When I copy this text and paste, it gives me:
localizac¸ ˜ao
Any help is appreciate
Tks
For computer generated documents (not OCRd/scanned)
Some systems like LaTeX generates composed characters because the system's font doesn't contain (or support) such glyph in the current encoding. As consequence. They are generated on the fly using Composed Glyphs.
Making two glyphs look like one:
A + ´ -> Á
Because of this 'trick', the selectable PDF Text Information contains the two separated glyphs. But graphically they are both rendered at the same spot.
The quick solution:
Luckily, the generated character pairs do not happen naturally in a well written paragraph (maybe in any language). So is quite safe just search/replace them using a case-sensitive method. You can do it manually with your favorite text editor, or using a python script, etc. Automated or not, the principle of the solution is the same.
It is important to know how you are copying the text. If you are merely using a text editor and altering the underlying PDF code, you are going to have problems. PDF files are organized in a very complicated and non-human-readable way that require specialized programs to alter successfully. If you want to make this change, you will need to use a PDF editor to either edit the document, or generate a new document from scratch.

I have this weird issue with Photoshop - when I use the type tool, I can type letters normally, but when I type any punctuation character, it gets added to the beginning of the text.
As far as I remember, I haven't changed any settings. How do I avoid this ?
You can try :
go to edit>preferencec>type..
select type > choose text engine options select east asian.
Restart photoshop.
Create new peroject.
Try text tool again.
(if you want to use your project created with other text engine type) copy /paste all layers to new project.
This is a paragraph option. Go to Window>Paragraph then a small window will pop up. You will have two buttons on the bottom. One with a arrow on the left of P and one on the right. Select the right one.
Select all text afected by this issue:
Window -> Character, click the icon next to hide the Character Window, Middle Western Features and select
Left-to-right character direction.

Does any text editor (such as Notepad++) syntax highlight MediaWiki code? This might not be strictly programming related though the Wiki script is a language by itself.
I think you want Wikipedia:Text editor support - How to set up specific editors for Wikipedia editing.
At least 8 text editors support MediaWiki syntax highlighting:
GNU Emacs
Eclipse
Vedit
Vim
jEdit
Kate / KWrite
NoteTab. (I assume that "Wikipedia" syntax just means MediaWiki syntax.)
Mac OSX
SubEthaEdit
TextMate
There is also a MediaWiki JavaScript add-on called wikEd that does syntax highlighting inside the MediaWiki edit box.
I hate to say it, being an avid Vim user, but Emacs supports wiki markup.
Edit Hold on a second, there is syntax highlighting for Vim too
http://fvue.nl/wiki/MediaWiki_syntax_highlighting_with_Vim
YAY!
You may have a look at this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Alex_Smotrov/ExtEdit
Alex also provides "userDefineLang.xml" -- a Notepad++ syntax highlight file.
Try out e-text editor, which is Windows only.
