Hi,
It would be useful to ship the Grep binary[1] (and dependencies) with Geany for Windows. It could be added to the installer for not too much extra size[2] and would enable the "Find in Files" feature to work on Windows by default. Normally I wouldn't like to add more stuff to the installer but I think without it Geany is missing a very useful feature on Windows by default.
Does it sound reasonable or no?
+1
It looks reasonable and even desirable to me, but I must admit I don't really care since I almost never use Windows anyway…
BTW, you say it adds 1-2MB, but what's the overall size of the installer? If it is 2MB on a 4MB installer it looks huge, but if the installer was already 40MB large I doubt anybody would notice.
For 1.22, the geany-only installer is 2MB and the geany+gtk one is 8MB. Perhaps only put it into the gtk one.
