Inconsistent Post window return highlighting #7524

Motivation

While reading #7520, the following behaviour of the SC-IDE came to mind:
Multi-line return values in the Post window highlight only the first line:

  • Example 1:

    (
    'line one\
    line two\
    line three'
    .postcs
    )

    returns:
    Image

  • Example 2:

    (
    "line one\
    line two\
    line three".postcs
    )

    returns:
    Image

I am accustomed to these behaviours, but it would be preferable if the highlighting were consistent.

Description of Proposed Feature

it would be preferable if all lines belonging to the final printed result in the Post window were highlighted, rather than only the first line.

Plan for Implementation

To my knowledge, this could be addressed by modifying the relevant primitives, which is currently beyond my ability.
