Hello friends, I'm Ariel(M) and I'm a student from Israel. I would like to participate in the Geany project. I have some exp in writing c code, none at gtk. Have never wrote code for a project, only small stuff for personal use. Total beginner in the oss field. But enthusiastic about beginning !!!
I will need lots of guidance at the beginning, because i have no idea whatsoever on how to even begin doing that (sorry). But i study fast, and love coding (prefer mainly C & Python2*). Using Ubuntu 10.4beta 64bit (Linux 2.6.32-19-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP x86_64 GNU/Linux)
Thanx! Ariel Haviv
Hello And welcome to Geany!

I am not a devel, but I could give you a couple of pointers. Best way to get started is to find your favourite bug [1] or feature request [2] (see this for more info [3]), come up with a patch and attach it either to the respective report or send it to the devel mailing list. Feel free to come up with questions on the mailing list, especially when the attempted changes are important and would better be agreed on by the developers.

I checked out https://geany.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/geany how do i make it locally without installing it instead of my working geany?

Or by using the --prefix option of waf or configure run to install it to some local path. So it might look like
$ ./waf configure --prefix=/home/user/local && ./waf build && \ ./waf install

You maybe also should consider to use the -c option to use another configuration directory then, just to not confuse your working Geany installation. :)

Yes, I agree.
Also a good idea is to have a short look onto info for developers at http://www.geany.org/Contribute/Developers where you could also find some style guide for hacking geany.
