intltool usage question
by Lex Trotman 30 Aug '09

30 Aug '09

Hi All, A question for the Geany translation/intltool expert. I have been creating a Latex filetype file for the build-system branch which contains labels for the menu items which need translation, "View PDF File" and "View DVI File" for example. The filetype is read in a locale sensitive manner and should load any translations that are in the file, and my reading of the intltool documentation leads me to believe that it should be able to extract marked entries from config files like filetype.latex and include them in the translation process alongside the source code strings and then merge the translations back into the config file. What I can't work out from the documentation is how do I tell intltool to do it. I read it as it will include desktop.ini and other known files but it doesn't tell how to include other files. X-S Can anyone help please. Cheers Lex

Strange Geany behavior
by Lex Trotman 25 Aug '09

25 Aug '09

Hi, I have a really strange problem with Geany. Using Geany 0.17 standard install on open suse 11.0, logged in as a different user to where I was developing Geany so there is no leakage from development versions. When typing 's' the save as dialog pops up?? I have a keybinding <super>s for save as but undefining it didn't fix the problem but it did let me check that <super> isn't stuck on. It seems to depend on Geany a <super> keybinding existing when Geany is opened. I can turn the problem on and off by closing Geany with the <super>s keybinding defined and next time I open Geany typing s invokes the keybinding. If I undefine the keybinding and close and re-open the problem has gone away. Its like the <super> is permanently defined so when there is a keybinding using it then typing just the character s is interpreted as <super>s. I tried defining several <super><character> keys and all of them react the same way, when first defining the keybinding all is well, but on closing and re-opening Geany the strange behavior starts. Removing the keybinding does not fix the problem until Geany is closed and re-started. So the problem may be in the load of keybindings. ~/.config/geany/keybindings.conf contains the <Super>s as expected. Cheers Lex

New plugin : "Code navigation"
by Lionel Fuentes 25 Aug '09

25 Aug '09

Hi all Geany developers, I am new to the geany-plugins project and just added my new plugin, called "Code navigation", which aims at facilitating common operations like switching from a header to the implementation or directly opening a file by typing its name.

Patch for Markdown syntax support.
by Jon Strait 25 Aug '09

25 Aug '09

Hi all, I've created a basic Scintilla lexer for the Markdown formatting syntax along with Geany syntax and tag support. It doesn't do everything; indented code blocks and embedded HTML aren't highlighted, but it's already very useful. Some extra highlighting features are added for the Pandoc implementation: strikeout, using '#.' as a default ordered list item marker, and delimited code blocks. Patch against build 4026 with -p5 from Geany's top build directory. This was built and tested on Linux. Cheers, Jon

ANN: Configurable Build Menu Alpha in SVN
by Lex Trotman 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

Hi All, The first alpha release of a version of Geany with flexible configuration of the Build Menu is available in the build-system branch of svn, https://geany.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/geany/branches/build-system/ This release is still under active development (see Known Bugs, Limits and Incomplete below) and is released to allow consideration of the functionality and how it might impact/assist other Geany activity. Some of the highlights are: (see the Build Menu section in the manual for the gory details) - Both build menu labels and commands are configurable - Configuration sourced from project if open, preferences, filetypes, defaults (in that order) - The maximum number of items in each section of the build menu is configurable - Unused items are hidden - New configuration dialog in the build menu (for preferences configuration source) and the project dialog (for project configuration source) - By default the build menu should operate the same as the old Geany. - New build configuration is in a new section in each config file and won't interact with settings used by older Geany versions, but will use the old settings if no new ones are available. Examples of potential capabilities that need to be considered for Geany overall are: - Now that labels are configurable, should interpreted languages have the compile and build labels configured to something more appropriate - If so, labels read from the system filetypes.xxx files are locale sensitive iaw the GKeyFile specification, but how do the translations get made? - Can any languages benefit from extra or differing menu items? Known Bugs, Limits and Incomplete (in no particular order) - Latex doesn't work yet, all the hard coded functionality has been removed but the filetype hasn't been updated to configure it back. - Only one execute command is currently supported/working - Dialog entries in preferences and project, for settings that are replaced by the new dialogs, have not been removed yet, but they probably do nothing - Error regex setting field in the new dialog does nothing yet - Not compiled at all on windows - Very limited testing so far (C/C++ filetypes only) - Sections of the manual other than build menu have not been changed, eg file formats, hidden settings any sections that reference build menu etc Enjoy Lex

Calltip and autocomplete interaction
by Lex Trotman 15 Aug '09

15 Aug '09

Hi Guys, When typing a function call, the calltip is shown when the '(' is typed. It is then replaced by autocomplete suggestions as the parameter is typed. If the autocomplete is accepted then the calltip is re-displayed, but if the autocomplete is not accepted, such as by typing ',' then the tooltip is not re-displayed, very annoying. I know I can re-display it manually by twisting my fingers into a knot ;-) but automatic would be better. AFAICT the editor.c code intends to re-display it but I can't see why it doesn't work in this case. Also I noticed that the manual doesn't describe symbol autocompletion operation and the keycodes for accept and dismiss. It does for snippets, but not for symbol autocomplete. Cheers Lex

Geany Plugin with Libxml
by Cédric Tabin 12 Aug '09

12 Aug '09

Hello, I try to code a small plugin that uses libxml2 to parse some data. I searched a lot, but I don't understand how I can tell Geany that I want to use that lib... To compile my file, I use the following command lines : compilation gcc -o "output.o" -Wall -c -fpic "plugin.c" `pkg-config --cflags geany` `pkg-config --cflags libxml-2.0` for the shared library gcc -shared -o "output.so" "output.o" Thanks and best regards ! Cedric

New plugin: embrace
by Prim András 04 Aug '09

04 Aug '09

Hi all! I wrote a plugin that embraces the selection in configurable text. I made it with HTML in mind. It's possible to define variables which the user can fill in a dialog, for example with a file selection dialog or a comboBox with predefined values. Screenshot: http://primandras.hu/stuff/geany_embrace/screenshot.png Some documentation: http://primandras.hu/stuff/geany_embrace/ConfigFile.html The tar.gz: http://primandras.hu/stuff/geany_embrace/embrace-0.9.tar.gz I'd like to contribute it in the geany-plugins project. It still needs tidying and stuff. For example I tried to set different set of key bindings for different filetypes and dynamically change them when the user switches documents (so the same key combinations could be re-used) but now only those appear in the key binding setting dialog, which apply to the filetype visible at plugin_init() (However using the same key combination on different documents does work as expected.) Best regards! András Prim
