Code listing in Makie.jl figure

[sdanisch]

Ok, this was interesting…Against all odds, I actually found the code sample…
It was almost 100% still working But, Makie’s 1 color per char actually regressed, so I had to fix that: make it possible to have one color per glyph by SimonDanisch · Pull Request #1582 · MakieOrg/Makie.jl · GitHub
But with that PR this works now:
