and otherwise if there is a howto about building geany on windows (or how to cross compile it from linux)
I understand cross compile works but its new and I don't know if its documented yet, @b4n?
It's as straightforward as any cross-compiltaion -- so it's not really. It's actually relatively easy, but as we have extra library dependencies, the boring part is to collect the Windows libraries and setup the various environment variables so the tools find them. Apart that it's the standard mechanism for the build system you use, e.g. for Autotools it'd be --host=i686-w64-mingw32 (or similar depending on what host you actually want to build for).
There is some docs at http://www.geany.org/Support/CrossCompile -- it's a bit outdated, but the basis are there.
Building on windows is addressed on the website and HACKING IIRC.
Indeed, see http://www.geany.org/Support/BuildingOnWin32 This uses Windows makefiles, but you can also use Waf if you prefer. The environment setup step is the same in both cases anyway.
