Line highlighting upon execution is not very visible in light-color theme #114

Based some tests in a demonstration settings in Bordeaux, it looks like the current line execution highlighting is not very visible in light-color theme (but it is good in dark theme). The reason is that the contrasts between the line background and the yellow border is low.

For the highlight feature VPL1 shows a rectangle on the left side of the line, maybe adding this, or changing the border width or color, could help.

I have tried darkening the highlight color in light theme, but it is ugly, although more visible.

Commit 033aa85 fixes this issue by using middle green instead of bright yellow. It looks ok, not perfect, but for now it is usable.

Commit fd999fe uses instead a violet with similar hue as the run button and the dark theme background.
