Adds an option to keep the {color} token visible while editing in Source mode (#5).

What's new

👁️ Show color token in Source mode (Settings → Hilo, off by default)

By default Hilo hides the {color} token everywhere and reveals it only when the cursor touches it. If you prefer Source mode to show the raw markdown as-is, turn on the new toggle:

  • Source mode: =={yellow}text== displays with the token visible at all times — what you see is exactly what's stored.
  • Live Preview: unchanged — the token stays hidden and reveals on cursor contact, regardless of the toggle.
  • Reading view: unchanged.

The toggle applies immediately to open notes, including when you switch between Live Preview and Source mode.

Requested by @TepidKey in #5.

Compatibility

  • No breaking changes. Same minAppVersion (1.5.0). Default off — existing behavior is untouched unless you opt in.
  • Test suite: 163/163 pass.
