[Squirrel-sql-users] Two questions about SQuirreL

[Fatbob <fat...@ho...>]

Hi everyone,

I'd like to ask two questions if I may.

1. Is it possible to remove that light pink or red line that denotes the
80th column from the editor?

2. Is it possible to display nothing in the results window if a query has
failed? When I run a query that works fine, the results are displayed (so
far so good), then if I run a query where a table does not exist for
example, I get an error message at the bottom of the screen, but I still
have the results from the previous query. We (my colleagues and I), find
this to sometimes fool us into thinking that our query worked fine, until we
finally notice the error at the bottom.

Thanks!

That has gotten me several times, too. I would also like to be able to
change the color for errors. Black text on a red background is one of the
most difficult color combinations for me to read. I have to squint and
strain to read it.

Not right now. But I put it on my list.

I could imagine a 'Close former result(s) on SQL execution' check box in Session 
properties. It's on the list too.

This would be a global preference 'Configure message panel colors'. On the list.
