Re: Cursor location offset from true location

Hi Neil,

Here is the image you could not see <https://i.imgur.com/Y0PtDJ7.png> on 
the forum without an account.

I'll upgrade to Scintilla v5.5.6. Just to make sure, if I compare this 
release with v3.7.6 I'm currently using, the differences are:

- new name of the DLL Scintilla.dll (was SciLexer.dll)
- the lexing commands were removed from Scintilla.dll  (moved to 
Lexilla.dll)

If I don't use lexing commands, the AHK wrapper I use to send messages to 
SciLexer v3.7.6 should work as-is with Scintilla.dll. And I should have no 
other change to do in my code.

For the history, I tried to implement language lexing in my editor. I did 
it using v3.7.6 because I do not have an AHK wrapper for Lexilla.DLL. At 
this time, writing a AHK wrapper for it is beyond my knowledge level. I may 
do it later with help from AHK forum users. But I also had challenges 
understanding how to implement lexing. So I decided to put these two 
learning curves further down my roadmap.

Thanks for your help,
Jean
