In certain places (window title, some dialog titles, tab bar, ...) we shorten the document name to 30 or sometimes 100 characters by removing characters in the middle of the document name and replace it by "…".
This was initially introduced by a request in https://sourceforge.net/p/geany/bugs/298/.
On the mailing list (https://lists.geany.org/users/2019-March/010970.html), it was requested to disable this feature.
One possible implementation could add two new "Various preferences" to make the currently used constants (30 and 100) configurable, with `0` as disabling the feature and add some documentation for these settings.

Hi, the dark blue color in my terminal is barely legible with my theme. I've looked everywhere and I can't find a way to change the color to something more contrasted.

**Environment details:**
GNOME / Wayland
Dual monitors
**Distro**: Fedora 33
**GNOME Version**: 3.38.1
**Geany Version**: 1.37
**Detailed description:**
When opening the right click menu under the circumstances described below, the menu consistently anchors itself at X coordinate 0 (Y coordinate is correctly set) instead of the actual X coordinate of the cursor.
**Steps to recreate:**
- In a dual-monitor setup, use the primary monitor in landscape mode and the secondary monitor in portrait mode.
- In a wayland session of GNOME open Geany and right click the input area, and the resulting menu will open the X coordinate 0, not the X coordinate of the cursor, though the Y coordinate is set correctly .
**Intended functionality:**
- Menu anchor coordinate inherits the X **and** Y coordinates of the cursor

I switched today from Geany 125 to 126 With the new version (running on Windows 7 64bit), I have (reproducibly) a strange problem with one file (its name is `irbrc`) which I had created with 125: When I want to save the file, an error popup occurs (see screenshot) which gives a "permission denied" message Moreover, this popup can not be clicked away (more precisely, when I click on OK, the popup seems to disappear for a fraction of a second, only to reappear again) I think, this behaviour of the popup window is clearly an error, because it is a modal dialogue, and I have to kill Geany with the task manager in order to continue my work It could be that Geany, after I clicked OK, tries again to fulfil the *Save* request, and finds - for whatever reason - the file still write-protected and brings up the same dialogue again
BTW, I don't think that this is *really* a permission issue, even though the message says so, because I can happily edit this file with other text editors I don't know why this file is special It is neither the name nor the content - I can use "save as" to save the file into a different directory

When geany.glade is opened in a modern Glade there is a message that it should be checked in Glade 3.8 for deprecated widgets.
Can "somebody" who has Glade 3.8 please check it and post the results so it can be upgraded now GTK 2 is no longer supported.

Suppose we have a lengthy C code and want to refactor existing variable names:
```c
...
int x_value, y_value;
...
```
1. Double click `x_value` and press `Ctrl+h`
2. Resize dialog opens with `x_value` set as **Search for:** keyword value
3. Leave the dialog open
4. Now double click `y_value` to highlight it and press `Ctrl+h`
5. Resize dialog is brought back to focus but the **Search for:** keyword isn't updated
I'd like step 5 to update the keyword value with new highlighted value from the editor.
The reason I leave the dialog open is because I want to keep track of the recent keyword that I just replaced without having to undo and redo again when I forget the last changes made to the document.

Just opening this for discussion as @kugel- is the owner of the code and I am not sure if the owner wants it to ship with official plugin.
As, geany seems to be moving to `gtk3` build, maybe ship https://github.com/kugel-/peasy instead of `geanypy`.
>From my personal experience, the plugin from peasy works well.

This may already be on the developer's to-do list, but I think it would be very helpful if the Debugger add-on had support for PDB (Python Debugger) and LLDB (LLVM Debugger).

I currently have two Geany instances open. One is being used for a dedicated project; the other is a "scratch" instance I keep open for general-purpose rapid iteration.
I don't mind using the GNOME filepicker to open/save files when working on dedicated projects, but I tend to prefer the terminal for speed when I'm rapidly opening and closing things or when I need to create quick hacks without breaking mental flow.
Unfortunately, Geany wants to send *everything* to its "first instance" when invoked at the commandline. Due to coincidence, apparently this is the instance with the dedicated project in it. Soooo, I get to use the terminal with my dedicated projects, but am forced to use the filepicker (over NFS!!!) when doing quick hacks. Haha.
So. I found Geany's `--socket-file` parameter, but I do not understand how to use it *as only the master Geany instance has a socket file in `/tmp`!*
```
$ ls .config/geany/
colorschemes filedefs geany.conf geany_socket_darkstar__0 keybindings.conf plugins tags templates
$ readlink .config/geany/geany_socket_darkstar__0
/tmp/geany_socket.b5c4f11f
$ lsof | grep geany_socket
geany 17853 i336 5u unix 0xc2b68240 0t0 4654382 /tmp/geany_socket.b5c4f11f
$ ls /tmp/geany_socket*
/tmp/geany_socket.b5c4f11f
$ ps aux | grep [g]eany
i336 17853 0.1 1.7 103224 36696 ? Sl Mar04 74:50 geany
i336 17955 0.0 1.6 105060 34036 ? Sl Mar04 25:23 geany
$
```
I'm curious why `--socket-file` exists at all. There are no options that allow me to start an instance with a specified socket file of my own choosing, for instance; I have to rely on Geany creating the socket file itself so I can use it.
