Geany improved a lot in protecting users from unintentional file overwriting when a file was changed outside the editor. However, Geany is missing one step. After the file content was changed, Geany informs users, offering one of three options: discard changes and reload the buffet content, discard the file content and overwrite from the buffet, or Cancel (means do nothing). Often users don't want to discard anything and select Cancel. However, later, when we intend to save, Geany doesn't remind anymore that the buffer content was older than on disk. There are many reasons why text editors should always confirm with users before overwriting the file. That is the standard behavior of the most of editors, such as vim, gedit, emacs, and much more. Geany should match other editors in this aspect, too.

To edit .md files, l currently use leafpad instead of geany because l don't want to circuitously change the two settings which enable automatic removal of trailing whitespaces just to edit some README.md a bit.
In Markdown, two spaces at the end of the line cause a line break.
l'd like to edit Markdown files with geany without dreading vanished line breaks.

The idea is this: If a gnu / linux distribution that includes GEANY wants to include some customized snippets, just add the "snippets-distro.conf" file next to "snippets.info" of the system with a package. snippets will be added, to then load the user's personal in /home/user/.config/geany
It is a way for those who distribute Geany to incorporate their own snippets. In the case of Huayra gnu / linux, we added a pair that are used with the PILAS-ENGINE framework, for game development.

Is there a way to set the min-width of the line numbers column?
Just because line 1 to 9 doesn't have the same width of line 100 to 999.

Hello.
I used to work with notepad ++ in windows, now I want to switch to Geany.
I had a script based on the NppExec plugin.
```
cd $ (CURRENT_DIRECTORY)
"C:\programming\compiler.exe" "$ (FILE_NAME)" "-oF: JOB_DIR\plugins\$(NAME_PART).spwn"
```
The principle of his work is:
1. Go to the directory in which we work.
2. To the compiler we indicate the file to be compiled. The file that is open in the current tab.
3. The compiled file is placed in the specified directory.
The file name corresponds to what is open in the tab.
For example, the tab is open: test.txt, and the output will be test.spwn.
How to do this?

The original intention was to easily build RPM packages by
users and developers. Nowadays, there are professional
Fedora, Suse and whatever RPM spec files available
for the according distributions.
So we can remove this unmaintained file to reduce confusions.
Fixes #2044.
