Different background color for source columns COBOL

I am looking for a way for downlight columns in Notepad ++.

  • the COBOL compiler ignores the first 6 columns, and all characters starting with column 73 (in any case, are ignored in column 80, 81+).
  • The seventh character has a special meaning (comment, debugging, ...).
  • From the 8th to the 11th character also have a special meaning.

To view the code, it is enough to do a reg-ex search for ^......., because it ^.{7}does not work. Using the “Mark Pattern” option, click “Search All,” and you get the first 7 columns.

The problem is that when you edit the code, the marking expands / contracts / moves, and you need to repeat the mark / search.

I am using NotePad ++ 5.03 ansi w / o unicode, COBOL highlighting installed from its site.

edit: I also tried 'Options' -' View'-panel-'Primary View' - 'show vertical limit', but this is displayed in all documents and for only one column position

jEdit has COBOL mode, but it also does not handle the first seven characters in a special way, unless they are followed by * or /. Then the entire line is considered as a comment.

It should be possible to change the editing mode to change this, but I'm a bit concerned about performance.
