Thanks for the response, Enrico. I have now subscribed to the mailing list. I did browse teh archives before posting though. Honest.
Silly me, I hadn't realised that you could turn the markers in the gutter off, which then makes the marked lines highlighted. This is a big improvement for me. However, to show you what I meant, I have made comparative screenshots at http://steve.horsley.googlepages.com/Screenshot-1.png and http://steve.horsley.googlepages.com/Screenshot-2.png The colour is not important, but I do prefer gedit's way of highlighting only the text you are searching for. But on the other hand, I do like the way that marking in geany is cumulative over several searches - that may come in useful on occasions.
