[Geany] GeanyLua plug-in "prefix" key?

I just uploaded geanylua-0.6.1, which adds an _optional_
 "prompt" argument to the keygrab() function.

Try the script below to see the added coolness...


--------------------------

geany.timeout(60)

local keytable = {
  l="examples/edit/lua-replace.lua",
  p="examples/edit/proper-case.lua",
  r="examples/edit/reverse.lua",
  t="examples/edit/right-trim.lua",
  b="examples/edit/select-block.lua"
}

local prompt = { "\n Press a key...\n" }

for k,v in pairs(keytable) do
  table.insert(prompt, "  " .. k..': '..
    geany.basename(v):gsub("%.lua$", "").." ")
end
table.insert(prompt, "\n [Esc] to cancel.\n")

local key = geany.keygrab(table.concat(prompt, "\n"))

if key and (key ~="Escape") then
  local filename = keytable[key]
  if filename then
    dofile(geany.appinfo().scriptdir.."/"..filename)
  else
    geany.message("Key value '"..key.."' not assigned.")
  end
end

--------------------------
