Gummi error coloring.

I really like gummi (mostly for its live preview mode), but there is this little thing that I can't stand. And that's the fact that, when there is a line of error after compiling, this line gets red (like deep red), and the (black) cursor becomes indiscernible when it's placed in that line. That makes it hard to correct the line.

So that brings me to my question: Where can I find the lines in the source code of gummi (http://dev.midnightcoding.org/projects/gummi/repository), which are responsible for the coloring of lines with errors? I don't want to bruteforce my way and go through every file.

edit. Found the solution. It didn't have to do with the source code, but rather the color scheme I was using (tango). So I dig up a little, and found out gtksourceview. Then all I did was change the "scarletred2" value in /usr/share/gtksourceview-2.0/styles/tango.xml, to a lighter red value.
