Hi,
I wrote a simple little plugin which moves the VTE into the sidebar. The purpose/rational is described in the README at:
https://github.com/codebrainz/geany-sidebarterm
You can see a screenshot of the plugin in action here:
https://github.com/codebrainz/geany-sidebarterm/raw/master/sidebarterm_scree...
If you care to test it out, either get the source from the github repository linked above or from this tarball:
https://github.com/downloads/codebrainz/geany-sidebarterm/sidebarterm-0.0.1....
I'm not very good with Autotools yet, but it seems to configure/compile/install fine here.
I've also made an attempt to modify the Geany source itself in order to add an option to choose the terminal location from the preferences dialog, however I'm not very familiar with Geany's source so I couldn't figure out how to make the preferences stick after Geany is restarted. If anyone is interested, the patch can be found here:
https://github.com/codebrainz/geany-sidebarterm/blob/master/geany_vte.patch
Assuming the patch applies OK (I removed a bunch of noise by hand), you can see it's almost entirely working with the exception of the preference sticking around on restart of Geany. The preference does get applied when the Preferences dialog is opened.
Any comments, feedback and pointers would be very much appreciated.
Thank you for your time.

Nice, thanks for working on this. I think it will be useful in my working with Geany. The plug-in configures, builds and loads fine in Geany 0.20 (svn >= r5478), but I cannot find a way to actually move vte to sidebar.

It should move the VTE to the sidebar automatically when the plugin is activated in the Plugin Manager, you should see the Terminal tab disappear from the message window at the bottom and a Terminal tab should appear in the sidebar. It should switch back when the plugin is de-activated. Of course you need Geany to be supporting the VTE terminal, which can be enabled/disabled under the General->Startup tab in the Preferences dialog, the option that says "Load virtual terminal support" (it's default on here). If you don't have that option, or you don't see a Terminal tab in the Geany Preferences dialog, then your Geany is probably not built/running with VTE support (ex. on Windows I don't think the VTE is supported at all). If it still doesn't work, let me know because maybe I did something incorrectly in the code.

The preferences I was talking about there are only if you applied the "geany_vte.patch" to the Geany source and re-built it, however I don't necessarily recommend doing that as the patch is not tested, nor is it completely working.
There are no preferences for the plugin, it just works as described above (by activating/de-activating the plugin).

Ok, I know why. It was a problem I somewhat anticipated, see comment on line #70 :) https://github.com/codebrainz/geany-sidebarterm/blob/master/sidebarterm.c#L7...
I had made a patch against Geany's vte.c file to overcome this but I did not want to require users to patch the source so I came up with another way to do it, see comment on line #54 https://github.com/codebrainz/geany-sidebarterm/blob/master/sidebarterm.c#L5...
After work I will try and come up with a better solution that still doesn't require patching Geany. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get a handle on the vte frame widget from a plugin that would be great, the comments in and around the get_vte_frame() function explain my difficulties.

Well, the first idea that comes to my mind is to check if the widget inside the tab is actually a VTE. I guess there is GObject-like API for the VTE, such as VTE_IS_TERMINAL(obj), so you can check whether the packed child in the tab is really the one you're searching for. Well, take into account that Geany might add a frame/scrolled window/whatever before the VTE, but you should be able to do the check correctly.

I'd implemented this in a slightly more generic fashion, something like one of these (untested) examples: http://nopaste.geany.org/p/f321377d7
The advantage is that it does not depend on the actual widget hierarchy, and simply checks if there is a VTE terminal anywhere behind (or at, depending on the implementation) a given widget.
The disadvantage is that since it uses non-terminal recursion, a too deep widget hierarchy would crash it. However, I doubt it is reasonable to think this might happen, so I'd think it is not an issue. In the same idea, one could say that it'd be slower. Probably true, especially if the widget contains a complicated widget hierarchy and no VTE. But I'd think it is probably not a real problem, since it's a one-time operation and anyway the UI toolkit most likely already does similar walkthrough very often (resize, or even repaint).
My two cents :) Regards, Colomban

Thanks! I just added the 2nd variation to the code, it's much better than my attempt :)
My next todo item is how to make the plugin not load (cancel loading) if the VTE is not found, for example after the error message, it gets unchecked in the Plugin Manager so that the error message doesn't occur each time Geany is loaded.

No you aren't missing anything. I'm still trying to wrap my head around Autotools. It should be fixed now. I added an autogen.sh script, so it should generate all the other autohell crud.

I've dropped Autohell in favour of a simple Makefile. Just do 'make' and then (as root) 'make install'. Use 'make install PREFIX=/usr' (or whatever prefix) if you don't want it in /usr/local.
If there's still a problem, make an issue on the github project because I feel as though I've caused too much noise on the mailing list with issues that aren't related to Geany/Plugins. I'm on the IRC channel quite often also.
I appreciate your testing this out, sorry about the build system.

It works! Now I have test whether my netbook screen is long enough for such usage. It's clearly not high enough for 'normal' vte placement.

It actually does concern a Geany plug-in. :) Any chance that sideterm would make the official list of geany-plugins?

I am not sure how simple it is, but I know several projects that switched to waf. [1] I think it's worth exploring.

I believe that is also the case. All my plugin does is grabs the contents of the Terminal tab from the message window and reparents it into a new tab in the sidebar, nothing more. I will look into how difficult it would be to fix these issues, perhaps someone who is more familiar with this aspect of Geany's code can provide some insight.
