When Geany is started from the Gnome menu it doesn't get environment variables set in .profile, .bashrc etc. Other window managers seem ok.
According to: http://www.mkssoftware.com/docs/man1/sh.1.asp#Options_and_Invocation
~/.bashrc is run even for a non-login shell ~/.profile is run only for login shells
Maybe that's why we experience different behaviour - I use bashrc not profile. Could be that the Window Manager isn't relevant?
