I have a large number of files that are 99% JavaScript, but are processed by .Net code before they're served, so have a couple of lines of C# at the top. I've given them all filenames of the form *.js.aspx but when I try to use that in filetype_extensions.conf it has no effect and they're still considered to be XML files (per an earlier line in that file). The filetype_extensions.conf file contains this:
```
[Extensions]
XML=*.xml;*.sgml;*.xsl;*.xslt;*.xsd;*.xhtml;*.aspx;
Javascript=*.js;*.js.aspx;
```
It appears to me that Geany only recognises simple file extensions (i.e. just the bit after the last dot in the filename) rather than allowing for anything more complex. It would be great if this could be extended to support multi-part file extensions that include more than one dot.
Output from `geany -V` running on Ubuntu Mate 18.04.

In large C files I use bookmarks to organize code in sections marked by conments that describe what the cose does.
Lately I started to write such comments in markdown, so that I get something similar to literate haskell but in C.
However the bookmarks set at the beginning of each section are not preserved when I get changes from the git repository that other colleagues committed.
Given that these bookmarks are always marked by a new markdown header in a comment I'd like to have them automatically detected on file open.
That is: if the line match a regex, but a bookmark there.

It would be awesome, if the plugin offer a way to delete every n line. I've got regular cases were I need to delete just every second line and somehow I miss this feature. Example:
```
line 1
line 2
line 3
line 4
line 5
```
would become
```
line 1
line 3
line 5
```

NSIS 3.0 is out for a while and there are MSYS2 packages for NSIS 3.x which would make the release process on Windows easier.

Since the 3 commits on June 2016, the Tasks functionality has stopped working on non-C files (i.e. .c and .h work fine, filling up the tasks) like .vhd
The 3 commits in June reworked the task-keywords detection loop and limited it to search only within comments.
Now it doesn't find tasks in .vhd files, even if the "TODO" keyword is within a .vhd comment, which is otherwise visually styled in the editor as defined in filetypes.vhdl, so that geany does indeed detect VHDL comments fine.

I found Geany via a reference in the "python crash course" and I had never heard of it but I was curious... this code was updated almost two months ago and very little activity.
My question is this, what is the unique functionality of Geany that would make anyone use it over say sublime, atom, vim, emacs, Jupyter notebook, Pycharm or a dozen other widely used products or even Visual Studio.
I'm operating on ignorance here, having never had someone even say the word "Geany like Genie?" and wanted to know what is the point of Geany, what does it do that is special other than, text editor over a network which seems to be such a common function that it seems practically standard nowadays.
Perhaps Geany is a holdover from the Fortran days and is still being used by loyalists or?

When `Tools->Configuration Files ...` is used to edit a config file it is copied in its entirety to the buffer, so when it is saved it overrides all the settings in the system filetype file, not just the ones that the user changes. So system filetype files distributed with new versions of Geany will be ignored.
Suggest when the file is loaded into the buffer it be prefixed by `# ` to make all contents comments, so the user only need uncomment those they edit and so only those entries will override new system files.

_Story:_
Besides searching for keywords like variables or unique words in codes, one also sometimes just want to search for special symbols like "\t" or "\n" for some reasons. One would activate "regular expression" for this, but still, "\n" will not be found, unless "multi-line matching" is activated.
_Suggesting:_
To have an extra option for **multi-line matching** is somehow useless, this **should** obviously **be the default if searching for regular expression**. This also would simplify the search/replace dialog a bit.
