Which version of Geany did you install?
I had another problem with building the add-ons, though. After taking care of the dependencies given by ./configure, I tried to get and build the geany-plugins-0.18 files and many of the plugins refused to build because of inaccessible header files.
If you are using Geany 0.19 it most likely will not compile 0.18th release plugins. You will also need to configure and build current svn version of geany-plugins.
I created a directory of /usr/include/geany and copied the files from .../geany_svn/src/*.h there, but there are still others that appear to be missing and that I don't have installed anywhere. The plugins that failed are: # addons \ # geanydoc \ # geanylipsum \ # geanylua \
This shouldn't be needed, as make install is doing this already.
It looks like I have enough to get started on a macro recorder. Am I correct in thinking that the demo plugin has the correct message loop that I want to tap into?
The demo plugi is a first step into building a plugin. Reading http://www.geany.org/manual/reference/howto.html might also be a good idea for the start.
Of course, reading all the plugins inside geany-plugins in case of any qeustion might can help you - as well as asking on geany-devel mailing list ;)
