Seriously, the menus give no indication whatever of what's going to be remembered and what isn't. If my overwrite settings get applied across all documents
The changes only affect the current and new documents.
and are remembered until I notice that I need to switch them back, why doesn't the syntax colouring option do the same?
The difference with syntax coloring is that it remembers per file extension.
So if you load a .h file and change "Syntax Highlight as" from e.g. C++ to ObjectiveC, all future .h files will be colored like that.
Part of me would like all settings to work like that, part of me thinks it'll be perceived as very non-deterministic (and IMHO only really useful for soft wrap).
