Hello Nick Thanks for looking into this.

The R wordchars setting including '.' is being overridden by the default filetypes.common whitespace_chars setting, which includes '.'.
If you remove '.' from whitespace_chars then it seems to work, but that affects all filetypes word boundary definition: http://www.geany.org/manual/index.html#id6
Strangely, I cannot get this to work. I have the following sh>cat "/home/liviu/.config/geany/filedefs/filetypes.common" | grep -i sh>whitespace_chars (21739) #whitespace_chars=\s\t!"#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\]^`{|}~ whitespace_chars=\s\t!"#$%&'()*+,-/:;<=>?@[\]^`{|}~ sh>cat ... /filedefs/filetypes.common" | grep -i whitespace_chars sh>(21739) returned '0'
but upon restart Geany still doesn't consider a "." as part of the word, either for R or for "untitled" files. Also, filetypes.r is the default one shipped with Geany. I must be doing smth wrong.
There is no per-filetype whitespace_chars setting.
Should I file a bug report? Regards Liviu
