When ever I write or paste a RTL text like Arabic or Hebrew after indention the text goes to the start of the line
example to test with:
```
<!--file name untilted.html -->
<ul>
<li>
RTL Arabic text after English text مرحبا بالعالم
RTL Hebrew text after English text שלום עולם
RTL text at this indention level and it will show at the start of the line in Geany
שלום עולם
مرحبا بالعالم
</li>
</ul>
```

Also it's difficult to select a word from the RTL text or navigate between letters using arrows.

I often have to work with files that contain a few longer (as in: "4 screen widths wide") lines - which I would still like to see not wrapped around, since differences of similar lines a few lines above or below are much easier to spot that way.
But geany makes it almost impossible to mouse-click-drag-select a piece of those longer lines, as even the smallest deviation on the Y-axis with the mouse causes a wild auto-scroll back to where surrounding lines end, so correcting one's mouse-movement back to the line subject to selection does not help - the previous x-position is lost.
Can I somehow disable the unwanted auto-scrolling while click-drag-selecting?
Other editors, like "nedit", do the natural and right thing: If you get below or above your currently selected line with the mouse pointer, the selection is extended accordingly, to the line below of above, but the position of the text in the window does not change, so it is easy to just move back the mouse pointer to the line of interest without unintentionally leaving the correct x-axis position.

Geany 1.36 on EndeavourOS (Archlinux 64bit current)

Graphical anomlies occur when trying to clean up long lines in a SQL file.
The context: I needed to clean up a SQL file, to remove hacks let into a website's content. This involved searching the content and manually deleting the offending garbage. The issue came when trying to do so. Not only did Geany often fail to show the end of the line, requiring a primary drag/select/delete, before being able to delete the remainder; but these double, and sometimes triple-ups appeared at the bottom of the line visually, but not in reality. There were two flashing carets; one above the other when this occurred.

Lets be clear here, Geany is a unpaid volunteer project, there is no project sponsor, no paid devs, or committers, or reviewers, or testers, no hoards of postgrads, or doctoral academics (hi Jeff :grin:), nothing happens __unless somebody does it__ .
Its up to the Juliaists to get together and make the pieces and make a pull request, get it third party tested and reviewed, and, after the current situation calms down committers may have more time available, but at the moment several have not been heard from for some time.
[end rant, sorry]

I've installed `build-essential`, but beyond that, the build instructions in the README are pretty vague. When I run `./configure`, I get
> configure: error: in `/home/dandv/prg/geany-1.36':
configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old. Make sure it
is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full
path to pkg-config.
This is unnecessarily painful. Ubuntu is a very popular distro. Can we please have a one-liner `apt install ...` with the deps for Ubuntu?

On Windows 10, these themes seem to apply to the main editor window only. As the rest of the IDE is not Windows-10 theme-compatible, the contrast between the dark editor window and the otherwise bright parts of the IDE makes using dark themes difficult in Geany.

There is enough place to print the whole filename in the window title, but it is reduced
