Nick? Any release plans soon?
Yes, I think we could make the 0.20 release soon. If there are no i18n string changes to add we could start the string freeze in a few days maybe?
I just updated Scintilla in my working copy, adopted the new layout:
geany
- ...
- plugins
- scintilla
- gtk
- include
- lexers
- lexlib
- src
- src
and adjusted the Waf based build system for the change. I didn't test it much so far but it seems fine.
What next? Either we push into trunk and see how it works or in case we are close to a release, I'd push it into a branch for the curious people.
I think it would be best to put it in an 'unstable' branch. Last time we updated Scintilla just before the 0.19 release it introduced scrolling bugs.
possible to apply a small (7 lines) change from scintilla r3465, which speeds up the rectangular selection about 20 times? It's perfectly compatible with our revision.
Depends on we update Scintilla soon :).
I would prefer not to include this in the 0.20 release, just in case it introduced bugs. I haven't noticed rectangular selection speed being an issue personally.
