My name is Shankhoneer Chakrovarty (aka 'shankhs' ), I have been using geany for past 3-4 years (mainly on my ubuntu ) and I have learned all my programming skills on geany. So thank you!

Since I have been programming for 3-4 years now and also using geany, I thought it will be great if I could give something back to the geany community. 

I pulled the geany source code, read the HACKING file and created a patch which categorizes the compiler errors into "error" and "warning" and correspondingly draws a different colored squiggle underline in the line which caused the error. I have created the patch as mentioned in the hacking file and attached with this mail.

If you guys have some time, can you please review the patch? If you need any more info, please feel free to drop me an email, I will be more than happy to explain it.

Also, I am reading the geany source code and modified some part of it to suit my personal needs so if you need a hand in resolving bugs, please do tell me. I am particularly interested in https://sourceforge.net/p/geany/bugs/254/ .

Thanks,

Shankhoneer Chakrivarty
