        For temporary coloring, select your lines and then

        Search (menu) -> Mark All -> Using XXX Style

        where XXX is 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th. The numbers translate to mean different colors: cyan, orange, yellow, purple, and dark green.

          Thanks for the reply
          I tried this - issue with this is - if you want to remove for one line - it will remove for all the lines.
          Also - this colors is not saved. Whenever i opened this doc again, all the colors are gone.
          Do you suggest any plugin for the same ?

            npp is not a writer/word/wordpad/ replacement.
            If you need such functionality then you better use one of those.

            Npp is an editor which colors different parts of a text based on
            a lexers’ rules. This is done every time you open the respective file
            and not stored if you close the file.

            So when you want to have a particular file always get colored
            based on such rules and non of the builtin lexers can be used,
            you need to create your own lexer by using the user defined language dialog.

            Cheers
            Claudia
