SyntaxView ignores selected text color

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Edit SyntaxTester to change the JEditorPane's selected color (eg.
pane.setSelectedTextColor(Color.magenta))
2. Start SyntaxTester
3. Select some text

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: selected text is orange
Actual: selected text is the same color as unselected text

The problem is that SyntaxView.drawSelectedText() calls
drawUnselectedText() instead of implementing the selected text method.  The
workaround seems to be commenting out SyntaxView.drawSelectedText()

Actually the main reason I used the same call to draw both selected and 
un-selected
text is to have colors and style even when the text is highlighted.  Otherwise 
the
highlighted text will be in one color and style.  So this work around will 
actually
break the way I intended it to work.  The case may actually be with the way
highlighting occurs.
I'll try and see what goes wrong...

The highlighted text should be one color, though you'll probably want to keep 
the
original style.  I've attached an image of other applications as an example.

Yeah.. but NetBeans does not :-)
Any votes for this?

Only way is to create yet another view class that does not override the
drawUnselected method.

This is now handled in the config.properties added in 0.9.3 and be configured 
as needed

There seems to be a problem with the fix of this issue:

IMHO the overridden method drawSelectedText() in SyntaxView should return 
super.drawSelectedText() in case the singleColorSelect property is set and not 
super.drawUnselectedText(). (see attached file)
