Hi,

If you can, please test and report issues as soon as you on Github as time is already close to the 1.27 release.
I just tried installed both Geany an GP snapshots on a Window 7 VM, and it seems mostly good :)
Not sure if it's my VM, but it seems slightly slow to startup or show plugin list. Might be related to an antivirus or something too.
I didn't notice a slow startup but also not paid much attention to it. To me, Geany on Windows always felt slow. But I also never work with a real Windows box, just a VM over RDP. But the plugin list is really slow. This must be related to some of the dependencies. Without having deeper debugged, I would blame WebkitGTK, just because it is so huge.
Some issues:
# Geany
Suffers from unfixed https://github.com/geany/geany/commit/6818ba6baf8bef4afe3b88b36b9eb2b5a8c2fc... -- just mentioning here so testers can know it's known and fixed in the source.
True. Release binaries will have the fix, of course.
# GP installer:
- The list of dependencies in the message for the GP option
"Dependencies" is outdated.
Thanks, fixed in https://github.com/eht16/geany-plugins/commit/c86c659407fa107aabf5a3c1d95018... as part of #386.
# GP plugins
- Spellcheck seems to miss all dictionaries, making it not very useful
(and print an error when loaded)
The error message on load without any dictionaries is a known problem but I didn't get to fix it yet. But what does "miss all dictionaries" mean? There are no dictionaries installed by default. Did you had an existing config with a patch to dictionaries which don't work any longer? This would be bad.
- WebHelper somewhat works, but the inspector doesn't, complains about
missing resource:
Unable to load page
Problem occurred while loading the URL
resource:///org/webkitgtk/inspector/UserInterface/Main.html
There is a resources folder in share\webkitgtk-1.0\resources but it doesn't contain anything like this. No idea where these files normally would come from :(.
Try again
I also have to click the inspector button twice, but that might be a WebKitGTK issue not specific to Windows.
Confirmed, same here. But no idea what's causing this.
- GeniusPaste doesn't fine its config files under Windows (an issue I
expected might happen, will try to figure out a fix).
I actually noticed the same problem on Friday morning, but didn't get to debug/fix it then. Anyway, you did it yourself. For the archives, see https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins/pull/402.
Will keep on searching for problems, but that's all for the moment :)
Thanks for the feedback.
